Re: OK - Not-So-Big Thumbs Down for Ballistic Prop
Another step in the ballistic saga. Actually last step. <br /><br />I gave it to my dad to try out on his 20ft aquasport cc with 115 Johnson. He called me from the boat and said the top end in a strong wind and chop was 39mph (all time best ever was 41, typical was 38), but the holeshot nearly knocked him off the boat. He loves it. His WOT was 5200, his manual says to be at 4500-5500 so that's real nice. I told him to enjoy the gift.
I get to keep his older aluminum 15X17 as a spare. <br /><br />I am happy with the OMC SST II with 5/16" vents, probably keep that till I break it.
