Currently I am running my Toysport Jolly Twin on x442's while at the pond recently someone asked why I didn't move up to a bigger prop. Now I'm happy at the speed of her now I'm just curious if it is possible and what recommendations you may have!

Fiego 8xl (2)
Etti 150's with larger Etti cap Banks
4s1p per drive
L & R x442's

Like I said I satisfied with the way the boat rides, handles and the speed but .... well you know!

You could try a pair of X447's cut down to 45mm and detongued.

I do't want to argue with the "prop master" but isn't that more Diam. and pitch, wouldn't an x445 or x642 be a better idea?

I run counter rotating props, don't believe they are available in those sizes.

I'd go with a set of 1816-10-50 ABC R&L 3 blades. A little more diameter and pitch with great blade efficiency.

Just my .02 FWIW.
