James - congratulations on a spectacular boat. It is the finest restoration work I have ever seen. Did my 26" Mercury Laser II prop work out OK?


Finnegan, I have yet to run this boat up on a plane for more than 20 seconds. Your prop is still sitting pretty in the box with a fresh rubber hub. Thanks again for that offer, it was fantastic. I have three props to test which includes yours. I am running the 24" Laser II with the plastic flo-torq hub, I have a 22" and your 26". I am pretty confident that the motor will turn the 26" by the little run I did on Saturday. I got the motor up to 4,000 RPM pretty easy, once the prop grabbed the boat got fast.
