I am running 1.50 gears. Before you go #6, talk to Rik at Arneson. They have done several Comps. with outstanding results. There is the sister of your boat racing in Europe that dominated the P1 circuit last year. It was originally a side/side and converted to staggared w/ Arnesons. There are a couple #6 boats out there two but I hear the boat likes the Arnesons better. I believe they are lighter and give a little more stern lift. When I talked with the guys from Europe at the Worlds, they said they hardly trim and rarely touch the tabs. They loved the set up.

Every boat is an expensive project. Yeah if I could buy an NXT boat for 190K, it means I am getting 100 or less for mine. The Arneson conversion soup to nuts is 50K.
