I need some educated opinions on the best prop to get some decent speed and run with myself and two others (Wife and Daughter) in the boat. I have a 20" mid, Bob's low water, and hydraulic jack plate. Been looking at 26 Choppers, 28 Hoss Triton, and 26 Choppers with Allison cut. Also, this is my first tunnel hull, I had a good set-up on my old Critchfield w/2.4 150, 15" mid, jack plate, Bob's low water, and a 26 Chopper.
Tunnel hulls are a whole different breed and I want to get it right. All help will be greatly appreciated.

There Are A Couple Of Props That Will Work With Your Set-Up In The Classified Section. The NICE! 26-Chopper Would Work Very Well As Would The 26-E.T. Cut. If You Get A Prop. And It Isn't "Perfect" You Are Very Close To Rich Junker @ Leading Edge Propellor And He Can Tune It To Your Set-Up. That Will Get You Going For Now Until You Come Across Th Best Prop. For Your Boat. BTW, When Skip "Talon 2.5" Had His 18' Talon With A Modified 2.5 200 on it His Best Prop Was A 14X28 Hoss. So, Your Choices Are Correct... One More Prop. That We Tried And Worked Very Well Was A 14-1/2 X 27 Mazsco RE-3 It Was Just About As Fast As The Hoss But, Pulled A Little Harder. Hope That Helps...
