    4 blade prop ?

    For stability on my 89 25' convinsor with stock 454 330 HP would a 22 pitch 4 blade be ok? My tach must not be working because with my 23 three blade i only get about 3500 RPM at WOT. any input? THANKS

    Chris my gimble bearing does need to be replaced because it is growling.I'M not sure what chine walking is. it does feel more like weight dislpacement even though i try to even it out as much as possible. Do you use your trim tabs evenly or one more than the other to control what side it leans to?

    do you use your trim tabs or just trim onthe motor? Does it have anything to do with weight in the boat. I was told a 4 blade prop might help.

    What is a stern jack and a nose cone? Will these help with my boat from wanting to lean from one side or the other?
