I cant seem to break 82mph I have a 34' advantage with twin 620's and bravo drives.I have tried going from a 4 blade prop to a five blade, lower and raise the drives even diffrent rotations on the drives,I have even taken everything out of the boat for less weight.Everything I try shows the exact same speed on gps speedo.Does anyone have any suggestions other then engine mod.

No,now with the five blade I droped from 5600 to 5200 rpm but a 25 pitch is to small always hit red line.So the five blade is getting me more speed for the rpm but I know that 400 rpm left is where all the power is.

The hull is a 2002 and yes I talked to a guy with the same year as mine and he is running 84 with 575's and four blade props. That is a good idea about the hook I have not checked for that. Thanks for the advice I will get back to all of you and let you know what I found.
