Same results here went from a three blade 14.5" x 17 mercury quicksilver to a four blade Solas 14.5" x 15 pitch. The holeshot improved as well as my cruise the boat ran level I did lose 2-3 mph on the top end. As mentioned many times on this site a stern lifting prop works very well on these hulls I am a believer.
