for my own knowledge base. any one have any recommendations for a RR 4 blade propeller for a 1987 2001/351, 1:1. had a customer today looking for a prop recommendation over the three blade acme he is currently running. i suggest he reach out to this site and mentioned  Tim. customer was interested in taming the wake to some degree for slalom skiing.. plenty of 13 inch left 4 blades to choose from i had nothing for right.. 
Thanks.

Acme 208 and 480 are both pancakes (I think), the reduced rake should help settle the nose some. Can’t remember if OJ offers an XMP 4-blade in 1:1 RH sizing but those do a good job at slalom too.

All at the expense of top speed, of course- not my personal cup of tea!

Thanks Tim, if anyone had a idea for this application it would be you. it has been over 40 years since our 1st and only 2001 hull, then we went to mastercrafts. in those days we really did not have a choice of propeller. the only thing we did was unhook the secondary's to keep them from crashing in at 36 mph.. 
thanks again i will relay to this customer.
