I boat with EvilTwin and see the boat on a regular basis, you will not find a nicer or CLEANER 388 for this kind of money. The boat is immaculate and very well taken care of, some may say he's a little OCD, lol. The bathroom hasn't even been used, I'm sure the toilet still has the original plastic from the factory on it.

Yeah, I was told if you remove that piece of plastic, the boat loses half its value...... That isn't true? lol

Not positive I want to sell it (I go back and forth everyday), but I kind of want to try something different. I will use it this weekend and probably decide to keep it (at which time I could change my mind again in another week). :)

What do you think of the ride of the Slingshot compared to the Velocity?

You have xr drives or bravo1. Reason I ask is I was thinking of five blades for my fountain pushing 600 hp with bravo. Just worried I'm going to tear sh it up.

How do you like the herings?

Strip Poker 388 08-29-2015 03:50 PM

Fyi, The 28 Herrings dropped my rpm over the stock Bravo one 30's, I haven't been able to run it all the way out yet,they do accelerate a good bit more, Not much diff in cruz speed,but im going to run between 32.3400rpm no mater what the speed is,Im sure they are harder on my drives, but prob not on boat w/ 600hp or less, so far Im hot happy with them,atleast they look good.:D

I need to test the Maximums 28 labbed for a comparison,or some merc labbed 32 4 blades

I ran a set of stock 32's ,they did seem to lug the boat down some,lost around 300rpm,but still ran a 102 on a good day, so labbed 32 would prob work better that my stock 30's. Im also not really looking for that 1 extra mph and doing much testing now days,just riding.

I also am running a 1.30 gear ratio
