28p Bravo 1 props as Plum suggested. I have 28p stock bravo 1's and 28p Merc Racing labbed bravo 1's. It will run over 75 with 28's. I looked at this boat in 2007, very nice 31.

How does the 31 handle big water ? I boat in the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean so not unusual to get caught in 3 - 4 footers ? Smooth ride in shorter chop (1') ?

I really trust my 31. I've been through some very snotty water with cruiser wakes converging from different directions and gotten it completely airborne a few times. It always lands gracefully and keeps running straight.

10x better than what you have. I went from a baja 272 to a 31SS. No comparison. I ran 65+ mph in the PRA a-bay run, in 5-6' swells near clayton. Boat is extremely stable and forgiving. Big water just makes it more interesting to drive.

No need to worry, the water over my head is from the wave I just punched thru, if you look at the side of the boat you can see the water still peeling off, 1 foot chop will just make it go faster you won't feel it , 3-4 you'll be having fun
