About 825 in the boat.... I very much believe there's more speed on the table, I never tried any other props or combinations, and I'm dragging a huge trim tab several inches below the bottom at 96. Need to shift some weight, pickup the tab, and try a few props. The prop I've run and tested with is a used hydromotive $350 prop that I don't know any of the history on what's been done to it.

Thank you. I had two Garmin 740s units already that were only a year old so I made use of them. Have map sensor sending boost to network, fuel guage and everything in the Merc harness feeding into Garmin unit...

Plus livorsi makes billet bezels to encapsulate them nicely.

That is a real nice looking boat! You did a great job on her. I've always liked Superboats, being an ex Long Islander.

Are you running a RH or LH prop? My Y2K always leaned a little to port. A LH helps with that. I ran either a Bravo or Maximus prop on mine. Always put the heaviest passengers on the star. side.

That's nice with the pumps and batteries, I never used that space on my boat.
