P IV Prop

[basschaser]

The torque is height and not prop related. Lower the motor 1/4 to 1/2 inch and see what that does for torque. The PIV seems to not have a “right” prop as there are many solutions to the combination. Judd Lasiter

man if u can get it to turn a 27 tempest near full rpms this time of year with a real load Id leave it if top end is your goal. I live in ar and most folks I know with a p4 turn a 26 temp or trophy. I prefer the low and mid range ride of a trophy but dont want doug to pass me so I have a 26 tempest. the longer I am in this game the more I realize the speed game is a range and not a fixed number. have I done 73.6 in mine?- sure, it was on fumes and I had the trim gauge as high as I could drive it. 66-71 is typical with 33 gallons, 3 mile run, tourn laod depending on air temp. get the hole shot you want, raise the plate til your water pressure falls or your speed falls and make sure you can drive it there.. as for the fury…havent heard anything on our boat. bet its better though! $400 better is another issue.C.O.D.

I rode in one yesterday with 25 fury. The boat perform better all around with the fury. Better hole shot, top end speed and great rough water handling. Lost about 100 Rpm. He was running a 25 trophy.

We have not had a chance to run a Fury on one yet. Though in theory it should run well. The Fury has plenty of blade surface and the P4 may run well with one. BCB

Im running a slightly “worked” 26p Troophy on my P4, and love it ! Great holeshot, mid range and top end, and carries a load great ! The P4 will generally eat any prop you want to run, so pick one and try it. I figure the Fury will be hard to beat though, D.
