Thanks guys. Took it out this weekend and was very impressed. Ride and balance of this boat is great. It's gonna be hard to even think about a IO boat after this....I'm sold on outboards!

I'm crying in my beer man. Boat looks awesome!! Glad you liked the ride. Will take a little getting used to. (Sorry I didn't get to the DMV, we've had terrible weather here for the past week).

yes tried some bravos 4 blade s not the same ride bow got light i think they were 26s the hydros i cut them a 1/4 inch in diameter for more rpms those motors run 6450. i had some other props all 4 blades but did not work well looking backi should of left the props stock and just raised the motors 1 notch but motors were running hot at times with the 2 hole cle lowers . with a step bottom the boat needs no bow lift the hydros keep it straight and the responce is on the money i had it at 75.6 on gps as it sits. very cool and dry weather, a set off 225 pro maxs os it what the boat needs with the same set up you could try some 3 blades , it will losen the boat up though the set up it great for rough and choppy water in the bay so when other were gettin out of the gas i could just let it go bruce
