Im still learning props, but abc do props with rake the more rake the more bow up, you would be looking for low lift props, the less lift a prop has the less it will push the bow down.

Yes it is one of Rods hulls I would have said that it was but I did not now how to get in touch with him.
I only have his email he did ring me one day and we had a good talk about his hulls he dose now what he is talking about when it comes to rc boats.
By the way this site you have posted will not work as I would like to see what else he had.
So with the hull it is all my work on top and the bottom is Rods I hope that when he sees what I have done that he might like if not then I think that he might give me a call.[]

I am not familiar with this particular hull, but am happy to share what I have read and has been suggested to me for the CT03 and CT04 cats on props selection.

on the Propshop, 6518-3, 6717-3, 7016-3, 7018-2. The ABC, I picked up a pair of CR ABC props at some ones suggestions 2916-3

I hope to have the Mystic finished and on the water in late March. It is powered with RCMK EVO's. When it is finished I will be testing and playing with props. Happy to report back.

Yes the pest props that I have found have been the 6717/3 from prop shop the RCMKs like the small props as I have tryed the bigger ones but the revves just went down,
It would be good to see some pics of the hull and the work you are doing as I wish I had.
