How was your hole shot on both props? I have an 08 Pantera Classic with a 26p Tempest plus and am looking at a 26p Fury or a 27p Tempest like you have tried. I am in to the rev limiter with the 26 tempest…wanted to know which prop to go with Fury or Tempest? My hole shot know is 3-4 seconds (instant) I like that! How was loading on the trailer with these 2 props? Thank you, Bill

Sounds like great results. Looks like the 26 Fury will be perfect in the Summer time. Chris Coupel Paulina, la.Chris CoupelPaulina, La.

Bill,the hole shot is great with both props im hitting the rev limiter on a 26 inch tempest and a 26 inch fury the 27 inch tempest seems to be the right prop for my PII,the 26 fury pushed the boat on the trailor a little better but not enough to be concerned about.Try the 27 inch tempest you should not hit the rev limiter,im going to try the 27 inch fury next,I will let you know the results.

I have a 25P Fury with all plugs removed on my 2009 P-II. I wasnt able to get over 5250 RPMs. 65 degrees, about 20 gallons of gas, no water in the livewells, and I weigh about 195, Plus gear. I had it trimmed level (5.0 on smartcraft gauge) Where/how do you measure the jackplate height? Mine is about 1 5/8. Here is a pic. FISH ON!

You are actually flush….measurement is taken where both inner and outer plates flaten out more towards the middle of plate. It almost sounds as if you are down a cylinder. I had #4 coil go on my 08 200 opti and I was down 300-400rpm. Unless you have a huge load you should beable to spin a 25 to the limiter fairly easy
