The one without the tape is with the drive on the same plane as the bottom of the boat. I think it is a little high for my boat. Pics are from the inside of the drive. I don't mean to high jack but want to see what you guys think. I figure it at 2 1/2 to 3".

I think your too high!! My guess would be somewhere around 4-4.25 for your 29 using 4 blade bravo's

Keep us updated this week.

If you are referring to me, they are neutral imco boxes and there is no way they are at 4". If you look at the pics they don't lie, but I also think 30 or 32's will be the way to go.

Indy, show us a wide shot from the side that shows the bottom and drives so we can get a better idea of how high up you are.

Still pretty hard to determine what the height is by looking at those shots!!!

Going by the pics you posted I'm guessing your at 3"!! If it where me I would bring them down to 4-4.25" I'm at 4.25 on my 32 and it runs well where there at!!!

It really doesn't look much different than mine in those pics.

Mines at 4.25" measuring on inside of drive.

Was out on the lake Monday and there were 3, 33 Outlaws running around. My buddy's which has the boxes and 2 others with no boxes. I know one of the boats is a 496MAG HO boat. Not sure what power the other has. Anyway, both non-box boats carried the bow significantly higher than my buddy's boat with the boxes. Probably can't tell much from this pic as it was taken with my iPhone and I did not zoom in but it gives you an idea how wet his boat runs. Makes you think he should just ditch the boxes. The other pic is another buddy with a 303 Formula. Gives you and idea just how bow down the Baja runs.
