maiden voyage 00 35 TS

Just splashed 00 35 lightning 500 carbed TS, came from a 98 32, boat runs hydroes and thought I was going to have a hard time plaining, plained with tabs up and down no problem, props didn't blow out at all, from what I was reading I was a bit worried. My 32 blew out once in a while makes me believe I can go to shorties.I love it ,. Must say very pleased with performance ride and handling.
Put on boat lift 9000# a bit to small for boat but does the job.
I'd like to thank all the guys to the replies to my previous posts.

thks Joe

You probably could benefit from shorties, but would love to hear what you are running now.

Don't get shorties. You will also need 5 blade porps. And you will not get the mph for the money spent. Just enjoy the boat. Try a set of 5 blade props first for better cruse speed and economy.

Reggie are you running the shorties.I was up in lake George for the poker run,but I didnt get to see your boat run.I then saw you at your work this past Friday but I was in a hurry and didnt have time to stop and talk.

We had a 00 T/S 35, loved the boat, It had 500 EFI's in it and was running 30 B1's or 29 Hydromotives. Ours ran 88 mph on GPS. You will love it more when you get more seat time. Have fun be safe.
