So far I am impressed with them. I am still tuning them to find the best performance with my setup. I agree that being able to order different springs in different poundage would be nice. Mine came with 57# springs. The SLT 10 comes with 90# springs. One thing that I have considered is trimming...
Thanks for the reply, the SRA prop took the performance of my motor to a whole new level while using the jack plate. The stock aluminum prop wouldn’t bite when I jacked the motor up. I agree, it caused too much bow rise and now I have the porpoise issue with a headwind. Trimming the motor...
Jack plate all the way up, the cavitation plate is 2” above the bottom of the boat. It’s just high enough that I can still run it wide open without prop blowout (thanks to the SS SRA3 prop). So no, the jack plate is not my problem. My motor not having electric tilt/trim is. I have a 21” transom...
Yeah the tabs present from the factory are something like 2” by 8”. The Bennett tabs are 6” by 8”. I definitely think the bigger tab will give a more effective result.
So I’m running an Alweld 1448LA with a 25hp Yamaha 4 stroke. I have a Atlas micro hydraulic jack plate. 3 blade SRA3 prop. Boat has manual trim tabs welded on from the factory, but the boat still porpoises on occasion when entering a headwind, making running a hassle due to having to stop and...
I got mine without the backing and used weldwood in the red can. It was super easy to work with and will hold up way longer than carpet and look better than any carpet you can find.
The performance of this motor is great on this boat, however since I do not have power t/t, I decided the manual jack plate was not the most efficient for my setup. I decided to switch out the manual jack plate for a Atlas micro jacker hydraulic one. This will allow me to bury the prop on...
