    Thanks Ken for another nice video, funny thing is I have been looking at way to get a better hole shot out of my little Nitro. After doing some research, I'm pretty confident that I'm running the wrong pitch prop. But I'm also going to look at moving some weight around.

    A little note about props with a ding: NEVER file them with a file to "clean it up to run until you have time to get it repaired." Normal files that we have access to are carbon steel. Filing your high-dollar stainless prop with a carbon steel file contaminates the metal, and THAT makes it a real pain for the prop repair shop to provide the best repair. If they do it right, they have to take the time to remove the contamination you introduced. I've been told time and again by repair shops to just leave it alone and let them do it.

    Are you sure you had the trim optimized when you made that speed run? The boat seemed to be sitting a bit flat. Do you think you could get a little more out of it?

      @@KenSmithFishing I must apologize for not being clear in my comment. I was referring to the boat looking like it was sitting a little flat when you got it up to 80 mph. I was thinking you might sqeeze a little more out of that barge with more trim. 🤓

    Another great video Ken, keep it up. I also follow Jimmy Houston and today’s bible verse was - Matthew 25:45
