His success story from humble beginnings, hard work and ingenuity are the epitome of the American dream. Hearing so many back stories from my...
The 33 had a short lived run and was replaced by the 35 . The 33 was the first boat Viking built that transitioned their production line from...
They certainly have design/installation issues to overcome. The mechanics behind the hubs are cumbersome and as stated before, the Hub Outside...
How is the project going, are you in the water and running yet?
Here's a link from Vard, the engineering firm behind the design:...
Both?
For the pictorial leaning learners: [ATTACH] The 'B goes without saying......
The main difference I see in the picture on Post #19 is the leading edge of the forward appendage comes to a sharp-edged point as opposed to a...
410 0r 450hp?
Nice update, would love to see a picture :) Appreciate your methodical approach.
To account for current/wind direction, take two sets of data in opposite directions. If your first run is north, take your second run south (-180...
Its hard to judge between two different brands of propellers as they most likely have two different blade shapes. The MW may be a Dyna-Quad or...
OK, good, you have an engine rated rpm of 2500 , our ultimate target would be 2550 rpm at WOT, and you have confirmed a robust no load rpm of...
Something analog that is useful and wont fail in a power outage: https://www.naudet.com/barometre-a-aiguille-c102x2726131
I mentioned it to further eliminate other technical variables, there is a lot of technical documents available to Naval Architects on the topic,...
Then you should have seen 2530 on the original set? WOT on 6-71TI's is 2500 rpm, and the No Load maximum rpm is 2700 on a healthy engine. You...
More on cup - it is a second variable that makes it a bit more difficult as you have to adjust pitch and potentially cup. Two variables now...
The most conservative route is to prop your wheels for full load - full fuel, full water , no waste, all gear onboard. Prop it for 2550 rpm and...
I like the cup as it gives you some extra lift in the stern, but the pitch is about 2” over if you can only pull 2250 rpm. You may also want to...
So those J&T 6-71TI’s are rated at 2500 rpm and should turn 2550 rpm to make everything “nice”. You probably went up in DAR and are pulling more...
