I have a 1984 Excalibur 31 (Not Wellcraft). It's got the notched transom and pad bottom. With worked 330s and TRS drives (and Merc transmissions) I can eek out 70 GPS with 25 mirages at 5100 RPM. With my 26 bravo1s I get 67 turning 4600 RPM.
It looks good now, but next winter I'm repainting the deck and windshield, and redoing the dash changing all the gages.
The paint scheme will never be updated!

the guy who built my engines has a 40 Excalibur Hawk built out of kevlar also...He just put a pair of 622" motors in it and is running #3 drives. I rode with him las November when he put th motors in and that boat rides like a tank. The boat ran mid to high 70s on radar wen we ran it, but it ran out of prop.

I too have seen that boat - it's gorgeous. He had it up for sale on E-bay about 7 weeks ago - he didn't get his reserve price so I think he still has it.
If I had the money......

I have a 81' 27 flat deck version You can see light through the carpet in the cabin it is also a light lay up. Where did you get the avitar? By the way the sword is going through the logo backwards. Forrest
