It was a good boat, I sold it to a guy in PA and he loves it, keeps banging things up on the rocks out there though. I put so much money into it and was at a crossroads when I found it needed some stringer work. Decided to go a little newer, and faster. Happy with the 353 now.

After talking with Brett @ BBlades about my 353 with steps and higher X-dimensions, he said 13/17% on a step boat is a decent slippage. I fiqured 22% was way high for a straight hull. My 311 with the deep TRS's had great traction, but I'm sure that the deep drives also slowed me down.

Formula88: Engines look good.. Get those %'s in check and keep us informed on how she runs.

I got the boat out for the winter, but I'll keep every one up to date.

Thanks again for all of the info. It sure is nice to have this kind of info. available.
