I had a 14.5 X 26 Hyperdrive on my old Hydrostream Virage. A local shop had a 'try a prop' program. The Hyperdrive added 6 mph so I overpaid for it. At 26", it was never steep enough for my SS2000. The fastest my SS2000 has been was with a 31 Triton.

I bought Lotus's 26, one of the best handling prop Ive ran on my 03. A hoss cut dr4 spinelli and a 4 blade hyperdrive were good too.

Thanks for all the reply's. This is a 3 blade and normally I have to run a 4 blade 30 to keep the R's down on the yamaha which is a 2.6 liter, this prop being a 15 inch should keep the r's down below 6500, we will see.. The weather here has turned windy for this week so maybe soon I can try it out.

I think my 31 Triton is 14.5 but I have not measured it. It's waiting for a new fat hub or my return to small shaft.

Ran the Hoss Yesterday. Was not impressed, it felt like it had to catch up with me and once it did I was at 6200- 84 mph and I only have 6400 rpm's to play with. Gonna play with the cup and give it another try..
