Default 38 ZX Daytona

Anyone have a 38 zx daytona (with extension boxes and HP500)? What props are you running?

Im running the same. Best I've seen was 78 mph. Only once though, and it was very cold. Have you tried any other props and what are you seeing for numbers?

We are usually in the. 48-4900 rpm range. Conditions and load have to be just right to get 5000, may send the props out to be labbed in the spring to get the extra 200 rpm. Have also thought about switching to -1 lowers since the boats with its have the same x dimension as those with std transom assemblies mounted right on the transom.
