Bobcat performance info

I wanted to update everyone on my bobcat since I’ve owned it . It’s a 23 with a 22 pro xs  4 stroke. Currently running a 23 pitch fury 3 blade with all 3 ports closed with solid plugs. I have a Garmin force with a 10” bird and rite hite turret for mega imaging . My console unit is a 9” bird . I have 8 rods in the locker with 4 plane 3700. In the back behind my seat is where I have my heavy soft plastic and crank baits with my terminal tackle. In the front two compartments I have rain gear culling tags , throw cushion with life vest. 26 gallons of fuel and full live wells (no fish ) boat plans super fast since I plugged all three holes. Will cruse at 58 all day. Handles the corners unlike any boat I’ve owned. Boat is very trim sensitive! Start out all the way down and slowly being it up no more than 1-4 once the air gets under the hull and you can feel it happen back it off a touch. Boat will do 61 but chine walks bad but almost zero rooster tail. when I have my buddy in the boat it sucks ! Boat seems to plow the water and only will do 45/46 tops @5700 rpm. So from what I’ve read and researched I’m waiting on a scorpion 3 blade 21 pitch which is a 22 in reality due to it being a larger dia. I haven’t tested that but will advise on my findings. not much out here on this bobcat so I wanted to share my experience. overall a great boat for 17’7 “
