My boat is an 84 it had #3 speed masters. I converted it to bravo's talked to alot of people even reggie on his cell and this is how I set it up. I have stock 420's with stainless marine exhaust and ran 78 on the gps... I didnt even play with props that was a stock pair of 26 bravo ones spinning them in at 5200.Gets on plane no problem with no tabs...I bet I could get 80 no problem....I know a guy with 420's and trs on his 85 10 meter and runs 70/72..The proof is in the pudding...
EX-----how far bleow the running surface is your propshaft??

Does that put the engines on top of the hatch?
Are you gonna need a jet ski to pull you up like the big wave surfers?
Do you have ext boxes......stacked?
No cabin?

That's up there. I'm worried about getting on plane now that I'm "even" with the running surface. I'll find out Sunday.
