Thanks !!!
There are hardly any Formula boats around our area!! She gets lots of looks and plenty of questions about her age!! Most people can't believe how well they are built!!! The quality of work in these old boats is amazing!!!!!! She rides so well !!!!

hey guys quick question about the 272 sbc boats it looks like JETTDOG's prop's turn to the right. now on my 311 the turn out. Does this matter for his perfomance?

The props on this 272 are both right handed as they didn't counter rotate props on alphas (was available at a later time and can be retro-fitted).

The props on a 311 (whether trs or bravo) should counter rotate which is desirable because the counter rotation helps cancel torque steer. I believe they typically turn them out on the older formulas, some boats are faster turning in but depends on the hull
