Test report speeds are obtainable with no gear on board, empty water tanks, and little to no fuel. But typically within 2-3 mph of actual customer experience.

Just an update...I change the prop rotation "in" and it made a HUGE difference. We hit 90 on GPS with 2 people and half tank of fuel, way more stable on top end.
thanks for the help....

I switched my props(32P Bravos) to turn in a while back as well hoping that my handling would improve at speed. At 80 my boat is solid but starting soon after the boat begins to roll side to side. My performance report has the tabs at 2.5 and trim at 4.5 and 90mph. My X dimension is 19" as well. I have tried many combinations of trim and tabs and can't seem to get rid of the rolling. My speed is a little off as well but I think if I could smooth things out I could get there. Any suggestions?

Hi Reggie, i have a 2011 29. When that boat hits a little over 70 it rolls back and forth bad, not all the time. Bad enough that u have to get out of thr throttle. does that mean it has a problem with the blueprinted bottom. It has the 600 with the ITS/SSM and running a 28 maximus prop with the X at 20. Do u remeber the boat.

I sure do remember the boat. Its a little rocket. There might be few small problems in the bottom that need straightening & the rest is in the setup. Prop,drive height & cg. Let me know if I can help!

Hi, Thank you for the response. At the time when it rocks the drive height is at 4 and the tabs are at 2&1/2. Should I keep this 28 Maximus prop and work with it or should I totally change the prop. What would you recommend for a prop? cg???I love the boat!
