ok so my strakes end 53" before the transom.

What other measurements do you need?

p.s. I have wondered about the fill in piece between the couches.. what holds that up above the floor, I think I`m missing something
Drive depth. From bottom of boat, to center line of prop shaft.
I don't have any fill in piece in my cabin.
Are you trying to upgrade to one of those 28's or 37's?

Thanks

The drive isn`t level right now and batteries are sitting in the basement nice and warm so I can`t level it out for ya. I imagine you`re looking for the drive to be level to take the measurement?
I can guesstimate..


I wouldn`t mind something larger/ more storage .. I have a waiting list of free loaders lol that always want to come with and it gets cramped when we take the kids.

Looking at longer boats why is it that only the cuddy gets bigger but the seating pretty much stays the same I don`t get that.
Baja does quad seating that makes sense and 32' Sunsation midcabin is another great set up for a family sport boat.

I want more seating space who cares about the cuddy I never use it except for storage.
AND I want anchor storage at the bow dammit!
I`m tired of handing it up thru the cuddy window or dragging it thru the boat!
Wow I just went of on a tangent
If it sells fine if not no biggie

Not sure, pretty stock 502 mag only goes 68~69 at 4900~5000. think the chinewalk comes from the hydro(sternlifting) From the pics I had at WOT was flyin pretty level,bow out of water, on a flat calm day.Not sure how too post pics anymore.

I'll try to get over to the storage barn and see if I can get you a measurement, pretty sure I left the drive down.
May take a couple weeks.

APBA measured ours at the transom from the centerline(crankshaft/pivot pin centerline) down to the lowest point of the keel. The max allowed by rules was 19.5" which is where mine should be.

Huh? so then you could still change your drive depth by installing a shorty and/or drive spacers. If I'm understanding that correctly.

I did, I did. Sad day. One of the last times out, Dave M was out in his new 30' Superboat, and Randy had the Fountain out, running good. There were a couple other performance boats out around Gilligan's, it was probably high 50's. Are you going to have a new boat next year?

NO. Had to be factory/stock Bravo drive top-to-bottom with no aftermarket lowers
