Ran the props today. Worked good but don't have numbers yet. It was rough and full tank of gas and 4 adults. She cruised 33 at 3300rpms. Hit 50 no issues at 4500 rpms. It held nice in the turns.

Nice cruise speed! But you did have the family and I saw the pics where it was rough, so you'll have possibly do a swap back and forth?

I still think we have too many blades back there. Need a duo prop with just 2 blades on f/r. That should free up some drag..

Whoops... my cocktails empty

These are cup holder rings. I've seen LEDs in the cup holders but have not seen the rings. Well, other than pictures.

Looks like it lights up the outside opposed to the inside of the cup holder. Very interesting!!!!
