Double checked this today, a 2002 38 Lightning is the same as a 1999 triple 42. Put the carpets on top of each other, perfect match.

I got a buddy that runs an 06 semi stagger w 525's. Im heading to the lake this weekend. Ill check and see what props he runs. Pretty sure they are Hydro's. He runs 89MPH consistently...bone stock.

Nice boat...well done.
