Ideal Prop for Mobius LS
I purchased my Mobius LS in 2007 with the upgraded 4 blade prop. When it was delivered it still had a 3 blade on it so I traded the 3 blade for a 4 blade with the dealership.
Since then I have tried a variety of different 4 blade props and none seem to be quite right. In fact, my boat has never been able to go faster than about 34 mph which seems quite a bit slow.
Does anyone know what the ideal prop I should have is?
Our altitude here is about 3,300 feet.
Thanks for any help.

My 2004 Mobius LS came with an OJ 13 X13. I bought an ACME 543 as spare and I now use it exclusivley. You should be running some where around 40 MPH.

I have an 07 LS and it runs 43mph with the stock 3-blade at 1500ft elevation. Give ACME and OJ a call and they will know the right prop for your situation.
p.s. I bought an ACME #913 earlier in the year but haven't had a chance to try it yet. It came on recommendation of the people at ACME for a wakeboard and surf specific application2007 Mobius LS

I posted In the past that I had a 12x12prop. In actuality I have a 13x13 3 blade prop at about 4500rpm I do 40 mph which for me 6'3 250 is a bit slow for barefooting. I would love another 3 mph without mashing the throttle down. I would surely give up a holeshot for it.

I own a '06 LS/325EFI with the stock 13/13 prop. I top out at 44-45 with a half load of fuel and 3 people on board @ 4,400 rpm.
I am currently investigating prop options myself. We will be using the stock ballast, when wakeboarding as I am in the process of installing the ballast system myself (orig owner opted out of factory ballast set-up). The boat also does pulling duty for several slalom skiers as well, so I'm looking at the ACME 13x12 or 13x11.5 three blade CNC.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

We have a 2007 Mobius LS, with the wake board prop I htink 11.75 X 12.5 I am good for about 37. I bought an OJ 13x13 four blade and I can et about 43 mph. The four blade is much quieter and smooth out of the hole as well.
