I have done test over the years and still find props that claim they are faster etc. Being a racer I sharpen and extra cup my props, Dhadley, what would you say will be the fastest prop (3-blade) that I would be able to get for a 50hp yamaha .......

hahaha, yes I do that crazy surf racing here, the pic in my avatar is my little experiment boat, seeing how much HP i can put on a 8,5 ft inflatable .... but i only run that on flat water as I would kill myself running that in surf ..... I race with a 4,1 meter thundercat with modified 50hp motor on ....

NO you are not, no one will help we with prop selection for my 50HP Honda on a Achilies Ultra Sport 124 RIB. I repitched the stock 3x11x13 to a 14 with cup and it still over revs. SNOKING

snoking ... you need to up your pitch man, remember the more pitch you have the less becomes the rpm, so if you put a 17p or 18p on your honda, you should be fine .....
