Beautiful boat, I take it you bought this boat from the Chicago area from Eagan (I think that is correct spelling). He used to do fly-by's when we would hang out on the east shore of Lake Michigan. The boat ran well. We overnighted in New Buffalo alot which is where he kept it on a lift. I made him offers about 2 years ago when he had just bought the Teague motors and he decided to keep it. Congratulations, awesome boat!!!

No porpoise whatsover. Mine is a full stagger #6 boat on 24" centers swinging 5 blades.....I have been told that they drive completely different between a #6 and a bravo boat.....but this is the only 37 OL I have driven. In my experience.....porpoising can be caused by too large of diameter on the props in a #6 application or X dimension too low on a bravo boat. (or a hull that is not going to work no matter what you do). My other boat that is a 38 conventional bottom with 1000's and bravo's......would start porpoising around 80 t0 82. When I put shorties on it...it stopped the porpoising completly and you could just buzz up to the dollar mark.
