Nice! Any issues with the VP's or drives? Any advice you can give me? And, lastly, what sort of top end to you get out of her?

Is that a photo of the top speed? You should have G8 props from the factory. Im seeing 3550 rpm at 49 MPH? Is the volvo speedo not connected? My older speedo will not work with my new 370 package. I may look to a livorsi to read off my NEMA output from the raymarine chart plotter

Are the G8 props more efficient and therefore yield a higher top speed? A better midrange? How do you know if you have the G8 props or not? And what sort of top end are you seeing with your 370s? Thanks for your feedback.

49 was top speed. Props are on spec sheet. Boat is new to me so can’t say much about it yet

Awesome boat! Enjoy the summer! Let's report back after we've both had a chance to use them. Also, are you keeping yours on a lift or doing bottom paint?

Wow! That's an awesome setup and it's covered. 99% of marinas in MN do not let you put lifts in them. And I really do not want to bottom paint this boat but don't have a ton of options.
