I dinged up my good prop a couple weeks ago (yeah I know).... Now I need to get it fixed. I had Cutting Edge do some work to it 2 years ago. Cut most of the diffuser off, and tweaked it. I told him I wanted a couple hundred more RPM's and it gave me about 100... I'm guessing.
The prop is a 28 Mach, which they apparently don't make any more. The boat has always run wet, I can't trim it enough to get the Bow out of the water
I'm thinking I want the rest of the diffuser cut off at least.. Thoughts?
A couple shots that 2FF took this weekend

The last pic has it carrying a little bow.
I'm sure you tried Bravo 1's? If not it should be easy to borrow some.

I have a 26 Bravo for it.. It hates it. Buries the nose, and is 5 or 6 MPH slower, and blows out when planning. I keep it for an emergency spare.

Is you hull stepped? Grab a 28p Maximus w a 15 1/4" dia.
It made a huge difference on my straight bottom 270. I'll post the thread I started on another site.
