What options are there for props? I'm looking at a hull without motors or drives so the complete kit is of interest to me. Having to spend $20k in props, ($5k x 4 for spares as well) is starting to get painful. I've heard about using Bravo props, how does that work with the large center section?

Uses Mercury propellers so the propellers cost the same as they would for a Mercury drive unit.

What boat?

Do you have a guess for a 38 Ts top gun with 800 per side speeds would see? Talking with Brian 41 about your kits.

How about 850 a side ?

Extra 100 hp never hurts!!! I like the way you think Brian.

Well the older 38 top guns with no steps and 840 hp can reach around 105 mph. TS should be over 110
