A 26-28 yammy's runs good on 2003's ... but over time Breaks Blades..
after I broke blades on 2 good runnin Yammy's I decided they didn't like the heavier loaded boats...........

Yamaha
I've run a 24 yamaha on mine a few times for fun and it worked great. With my 260 it'll turn about 9000 +/-. (Just estimating because my tach only goes to 8000). I do know it was 97 and change on the GPS. It's a whole different boat compared to my 28" Hoss.

Not any harder, just more fun
Quicker,
Not any harder to drive, just a lot quicker. It's the most fun, cruising about 3000-3500 and then stabbing it. The whole boat torques and the motor seems to turn up instantly.
It's no drag boat, but it does pretty good for a big ol' family cruiser. I'm sure if I were to pull out all of the family crap and increase the trim to 24V it would surprise a lot of people.

Fl boy,
Hi Rick!!
I ran the 30" performance yammicopy with the 1.75 gears and loved it.
98.5 gps with a good chop on the water.
STeering torque is minimal. It feels like power steering compared to other props.
I also threw a blade and I haven't ordered another one yet.
So far, ever prop I've had has thrown a blade or has cracked.
Right now I'm running a Ron Hill 30" chopper. It's alright. I still haven't tried the ET and would like to. If I remember correctly, ER says the metal in the ET is superior than what is used in the performance yammicopy.
Hurry up and tell us how the 260 did!!!
Take care,
Wicky
