@mcprodesign - what size steps do you have? I have a '99 38' Fever with the small steps. With full fuel, full gear, a honker of a stereo system and my fat ass on board, I busted 92mph on a short stretch. How's yours set up? What drives? Props? Gear ratios? Ect? If I had more lake at the time, I'm sure I could have broken triple digits. I'm running 900hp/side. Side-by-side motors, small steps.

I blue printed my lowers ( myself) and the bottom of my boat ( myself) and went faster. I also get 3-4 mph out of the herings over the maximus 5 blades. Our boats love 5 blades . I have tried 4 and 6 blades. 6 blades will work but hard to get on plane. Mine is also a small step 38 . I have no plumbing or kitchen. Just a porta potty in the bathroom.
