Do you 35 flat bottom guys run Bravo1 props or Hydromotive?

Remember these 33-35 fountains are fly weight 30 foot boats.

Phil it was 9500ish for the boat.

I have a set of both the hydros are a couple miles per hour faster and are fun to drive use mostly for poker runs and the bravos give me a better cruise speed at a lower rpm mine turn out.

when we raced the konrad fountain of youth it was 9260 lbs hanging on the crane with nothing in it and 30 gallons of fuel in each tank ready to race. that was a 86 10 meter. that boat and my 92 35 prefer hydromotives.
