Phil are you going to make down to Huntsville for our July records trial?

I might try and make it down. It's hard to plan that far out for me, Kids, Business, Wife ! I would love to see some fast Boats.! Phil

Thanks

Another Phill!

I think it's an AB 67 Pipe.

I had a chance to run the Rigger this am. The weather was Hot ! almost 90 and the conditions weren't the best, but I found a little smooth water on the far side of the Lake. The set up was :

50% RedMax

MC-9

AB 67 Pipe @ 11.75

2170

Full length Rudder and Stock 45 Turn Fin.

Still breaking in the motor. I put in the GPS for a few runs and got 94 mph ! Thanks to my camera man Mike Shuttleworth and Will Gallagher for advice on the phone today.

I'll post this video. Not the best quality the smooth water is 250 yards away. Phil

Phil,

Little shorter pipe and a little more propeller next weekend.

Looks Good On The Water,

Mark

Good stuff, try a small turn fin or none at all and it'll go 100...

Are you using a Stock Octura 2170??? or any change in the prop?

Cheers.

Not stock, It's from Andy Brown. Not really sure about the specs. Seems like a good one ! Phil

 

[LuizBarbetta]

Nice,

Can you put a picture from prop??

cheers.

 

[Philmunsterman]

Sure.

 

[LuizBarbetta]

Very Intersting! <_<

Did you just got from Andy?

 

[LuizBarbetta]

A few pics of my 2170.

 

[Philmunsterman]

What are you going to run it on ?

 

[LuizBarbetta]

same like you!

Eagle 45 with 91motor

 

[Philmunsterman]

I'm not a prop expert Luiz. Maybe some others can comment. It sure looks like a lot of the blade area has been removed. You might want to talk with Mark Sholund @ Props-4-U and tell him what your running I'm sure he could help. Phil

 

[LuizBarbetta]

Yea, I know Mark.

My 2170 have a special Mod. for SAW Riggers 7.6Cup

 

[Philmunsterman]

How does your 45 Boat run with that Prop ?

 

[LuizBarbetta]

Good question!

I dont know. I never run the boat! maybe in the next months! I hope so. hehehehe

Luiz that looks like a good prop there i got one that look something like that from Andy Brown a few years back for a Mac 67 in a 45 set up never got around to messing with anything till Ive ran across this post and it has got me hunting up stuff for two riggers one with a 67 & one with a purple head 90 fired the 90 up just a while ago and she is ready just got to get the strut height set and find my prop going to pull out the 67 and drop in the tub in the morning and if not raining i'm heading to the pond

 

[Andy Brown]

Yes, that is the way I often cut the 2160 and 2170 for SAW.
