Thanks guys I am super proud of her!! The props I am not sure yet they are a 21p quicksilver but no actually name on them yep its still alpha set up SBC 260 horse 350's I was gonna ask the question of what kinda props this boat likes cause I know she isheavy and I'm sure I would need a prop to carry a heavy load.....any suggestions? Cause my current props dont seem to wanna carry the load well up on top

Are they round ear props or cleavers? I have a 250XL NOVA that is essentially the same boat but with a stepped transom. Mine is running 23 cleavers, but need to make a change, thinking of 21s I am running 406ci small blocks. What does yours run @ WOT?

They are round ear 21's I have only pegged it once for just a minute but I believe I seen 4,500 -4,600rpm on both tacs full trim half tank of gas and 6 people lol don't know actual g.p.s. speed yet though.... but seems to wanna bounce up and down like the props are losing bite maybe?

I guess you can say I'm a little partial to Nova's. You have a nice ride there.

Here is the original (just because I like showing it off, lol).
