Pick two.
I'm shooting for the latter two. But, that's my style.
You won't even see me coming, but you'll remember.
I'll help you spend your money!!
Next question.

I do want to keep the "Old school" line's with a little of today's flash....with that...I want to keep clean lines and some kick a$$ add on's / extras...It is the 30th anniversary of this off- shore legend so I want it to do the Family Proud..and I am sure the critics are going to jump in with their thoughts, but by all means, the pool is open...I need and want your thoughts...
As far as Power, I'm open to suggestions, but in the end, Jo and Pepe are the ones that I will listen too, With that being said, I will listen to anyone with any opinion, good or bad....As you can see I'm new to this,....And i will take all the guidence needed...To make this happen.

Scott, you'll love the boat no matter what you put in it.
If the hull changes net a 10mph dif then that's smokin good.
That would put a 525 in the very high 70's
Isn't full throttle running about 68-70?? with a standard bottom

Have Jo & Pepe been testing with a plug?Anyone know if a new 28' will be at the Miami show? Would definitely make the trip worth while.
