I got the 26p fury put on 2day. I am running a 2008 Cougar Advantage Elite 225 pro xs. The holeshot improved alot it doesnt really ahve a hole shot anymore it more or less leaps outta the water. I went from consistantly running 74-75mph on gps to 78 mph with slightly more lift. The water here has warmed up to 62-64 degrees i have run 77 a couple times when the water was low to mid 50s i bet i can get it to touch 80 in the winter next year. Yes its fully loaded with all my tourney stuff and even a spare 26p tempest prop…. lol
