What is a good prop for this hull? This one does have a notched transom. I was thinking a 26p bravo 1? Anyone have any thoughts or input?
600hp on bravo's on a hawk... poor bravo's
Good luck, it definitely is a wave crusher and should run real well! I've wanted one for a while.

degreased and painted the bilge removed the extenxion boxes, repaired the transom after removing the boxes and tried something to see how it broke up the white. went to install the engines and found the alignment was way off so i had to plug and redrill the holes in the stringers. then start rigging everything back and set up the new power
