So if I bought an old boat and ran 100 in it what would happen?
My friend won alot of races with a old Doug Wright boat Last year.

Yes, but he raced with a boat that met the rules. He also had a great T-man, and found the quickest way around the course. I hope he has another great season.

Having a great T-man only keeps part of the drive from breaking. The other part is what I'm worried about breaking.
How many props do you guys bring to a race?

I would think 3 would do it, a lot would depend on the way you have the boat set up. You would atleast need 2 for sure in for the rough and one for the flat. But i'm sure you knew that.....

It sounded like I was going to need 10 props. But 3 for shure depending on the water.
What is the boat count this year? It look good last year at the start and ended up with 3 boats at key west. I was looking at the class because it had good boat count in the past. I hope i can have a boat ready by the end of the year.

not sure what 10 props u would possible think u need, but 27,28,29 should be your main props. with the new X dimension rule dont think u will be running bigger then 29's this yr. If you are really dialed in u might be able to get away with a 30 in dead flat.
