Like lil red said, what is your current x dimension.
I can tell you, a friend of mine did this on a 1979 30FT Scarab hull with TRS when he did a new transom. With a pair of 540's, the boat ran 92mph and was very stable with the raised drive height. |

I'd really like to know more about that set up. I have the identical rig (minus raising the X-dimension). What was the X-dimension he started with and what was it after he raised it? What prop is he using? And how did changing the X-dimension affect getting up on plane? Any chance I could talk to your friend about it?
I know he was running a 26P Hydromotive quad IV-X rounded tip 4 blade, spinning them to around 6k RPM. His 540's were solid roller, Dart heads, made a tad over 700hp each. He had good luck with the TRS staying together on that setup. I think the key was letting the engines rev to get the load off the drives. |
