Greeting all. New forum member. Saw some prior posts about alternate prop geometry. We had a custom prop house sell us 16D x 15P Enigma knockoffs this past season. RMP lowered to 5600 at wide open vs. 6300 with original props. Still takes about 20 seconds to plane off with moderate load. but cruses at 25mph at about 4700 rpm. Have not tried it fully loaded yet. Has anyone tried adding hydra-foils to the lower units to increase lift while planing? Would appreciate any feedback from the forum on how to deal with getting out of the hole with a full load. Thanks!
