We have the same hull and motors but with XR's. We see an honest 82, but the XR's probably cost 1-2 MPH. I think the norm is 83 or 84 with the 496HO's and Bravo1 X drives.

I think you're right that the gimble bearing and u-joints are now suspect. They aren't supposed to be exposed to any water.

We had a bellows leak on our new boat and it destroyed the bearing and...

I regularly see Fountains cruising around with the swim platform touching the water line. This means all the exhaust thru-hulls are (at least partly) under water too. Bad design by my standards. It's...

Most people are surprised at the amount of space (including headroom) in the cabin of the 32SSR. This is partly due to how tall the deck and hull is on this boat. One of the recent...

What year is your truck? I'm interested in the touch screen nav upgrade and ipod hookup. Not sure it will work in my 2007 though.

P3 with brake rite EOH as well. Works great and highly adjustable. P3 can switch between straight electric and electric over hydraulic. Be sure to put it in the right mode.
