| Post subject: | BBLADE Long tail prop trial run |
23hp swamp lite on 16’ skiff square bottom. Normal prop is a used 9x7 gdlt prop off of a 27hp gdlt , it. Out preformed my back water blade due to being a bigger prop. Ran my new bblade 9x7 today for first time... crazy shit left me with mixed emotions.. Top end dropped 2.5-3 mph... ran 20mph up an down river @ 3950 rpms. My 9x7 gdlt prop did 23 @3900 rpms earlier right before I made the switch. Added a 200lbs person to front of boat, bblade preformed 18mph @ 3860 rpms Same load the GDLT prop ran a solid 21 never raised nor dropped @3780-3800 rpms Now the bblade pushes the hell out my boat makes it lay down much more an handles the thick Lilly’s n alligator grass the same as my prodrive did ...straight eats, never checks up doesn’t blow out the water doesn’t drop in speed unlike my backwater prop or my godevil prop. The bblade is also real smooth no vibration what so ever. I just can’t get over the jump in rpms an a drop n speed ... but damn it does good in the thick stuff, an my motor seems to be much more alive an commanding @3950 rpms Maybe I can get a pro to add pitch to it , that’s the biggest prop bblade makes on the website. If only the bblade would at least carry a load better with the added rpms |
