    Who else has an Eluder?

    eluder hey mine has the original aluminum in the back and it is 25 gal. i am running a tempest 25' prop with a bone stock 200merc efi and it has lots of bow lift. runs 70mph at about 5600 rpm. only downfall is boat doesnt ride well in rough water because nose is high, but it is fast.

    1985 eluder prop ideas

    prop hey, i tried a tempest plus 23' and it really lifted the bow. it was slow taking off and never got over 5400 rpms. but that was with the prop 3 1/2" below pad. turbo 24' is a 3 blade and takes off like a rocket. but uses a lot of fuel during 45 mph cruise speed. has plenty of bow lift. i...
