Just picked up new '06 38 Lightning
Hey guys. Back in the saddle again and it feels awesome!! Can't wait to get her out in the water. Boat is beautiful. Staggered 525s. Have a couple questions:
1.what are the best props to run for speed?
2.where can I get some snap in cockpit carpet
3.where is the best source for impeller kits?
4.where is the best source for docking lights?
Thx guys!!

When you figure out what the best props are let me know. mine are BBlades 28P 5 blade. I have XR's with SM lowers and it takes a lot of finesse to get it on plane, top speed 88-89 on analog GPS. Ive seen other Manufacturers 38's and 39's tested in PB magazine with staggered 525"s that have 30 and 32 pitch props hitting around 91. Props can be a real expensive guessing game.
