I borrowed a pair of 30" Bravo props from Ospreyproduction to test on the 30 Liberator. He had these labbed with two 1" ventilation holes per blade. I was sure these would never get on plane due to the massive ventilation. MAn was I surprised! Got on plane instantly and pulled hard to 93 mph. Held the nose real high to. This boat is so easy to drive. No hop, no cavitation, NOTHING. Here's a few pics and a video from today. http://youtube.com/watch?v=EOhJsuVkZlQ

Any hesitation when you hit the throttle from idle?

Is that normal?.......the huge rooster tail all the time?

No hesitation whatsoever. Planes instantly without cavitation. The rooster lays down to a couple ft high over 80 mph. Most all tunnels have a high rooster at medium speeds due to the engine hieght.

I turn them in. Turning out seems to make the boat get a "lope" at higher speeds

The Bravo 1 was one of my favorite props! Ran a 28 on mine for a while last summer. Only had 1 set of 1 1/8" vent holes in mine. Bogged to much off idle. Also had the holes on the opposite sides of the blades.
Please try it on a 21 with a 300 XS and let us know how it works on that one.
