Turning Point Hustler results

[rrhodes]

Okay so I tried the Hustler prop and here are the results.
2008 JC Neptoon 25' Triple tube w/ 2008 Honda BF115

Stock Solas Prop 13p
5800rpm and a top speed of about 28mph

Hustler Prop 13p
5900rpm and a top speed of 29mph

In addition to the 1MPH increase I noticed a significant increase in Hole Shot and mess cavitation in turns. With the stock prop I had a significant decrease in speed when making tight turns which made tubing boring to say the least. This time I dropped to about 26 mph in a hard turn so tubing should be more fun this year.

The Hustler prop was well worth the money.

Re: Turning Point Hustler results

I've seen a number of positive results.I think a 1mph increase is signifigant
even with a 3 tube toon. And handling impprove ment is a nice plus sometimes forgotten about.

I traded up a Volvo Penta 14.3X21" pitch for a Stiletto 4 blade 14.25X20" pitch. Dropped about 400 rpm and roughly 4 mph over my stock prop but gained hole shot and low-speed stability. I couldn't resist popping for the Turning Point prop and it should be here next week. I'm looking forward to seeing what it brings us on normal water.

With all the positive results I keep seeing on the TP Hustler, and with iboat's current "sale"; I couldn't resist, so I ordered. Less than $100 for the prop, hub & shipping - how can I lose?

Update - My new TP Hustler was delivered. I got the opportunity to take it over to the river today. WOT remained the same, it's quicker to plane, and the top end increased by about 1.5 MPH (on the GPS). I'd certainly recommend it.
