Swell - Wake shaping

Nice job with the suction cups @FlyNavy76 . That's what I want to do.
 
I have no experience in this field with a converging system behind a 190. I ask because I want to know myself so my offer still stands with putting the Ronix on a 190.

@skrip345 is sort of in your area, if he still has his 192 and has any interest.
 
I mean, ya I'm sure I could be talked in to it. Ha! I can say, with what little bit of testing we did last year, I will need to re-prop the 192 to give it more low end, otherwise speed management is a nightmare, and its basically running wot with ballast at around 10mph. I talked to one of the prop companies last year, I think impros, but I cant remember. Anyways, they had an idea for a nice low end prop. If I could get the boat to "bite" at about 10 or 11 without already being wot, then we could load down with tons of ballast and probably have a pretty sweet wave.

I don't think you are going to cure prop slip with any new prop.
You would probably benefit more from the Lucky 13 anti- cavitation cone.
