YEP, thats what i think ......also keep in mind the older boats are 6-10 inches longer.
And ED knows alot ,but he can be wrong sometimes too.
My 1990 PP33 was exactly like i said and i started to spin them out after i put boxes on.
Also the angle on the transoms from PP are diffrent then usualy (manyothers) thats wy they love it to spin them in.
4 blade Hydromotive is what mine had when i bought it with stock 454 mag 365HP damn thing ran 76 MPH on GPS in freshwater.
And i will buy an other PP anytime soon and race it.
If i dial a boat in you can bet on it it is going to run the way it should.

So ,your saying if the props spin out ? The drives should be apart more in the front then at the propshaft ?????????????
I think your missleading people here !!!!
If you think about ,they actualy should be perfect lined up with each other, but since at high speed there can be handling problems ,,,,,,,thats wy someone had the idea to set the
"tow out" just like on the front axle of a car.
To keep them from going difrent directions !!!

In any case.
If Frank picks up an additional 5-8 mph. There isn't a V-hull on the bay that's going to touch it in rough water. The hull on his 33 is just incredible. Everything that was thrown at it just got eatten-up.

Thanks for the pix Rick!
XPRESS 33PP - Thanks for the compliment! I went out to the garage and took a couple of pix for you, but it doesn't look like I can post them anymore
I can e-mail them to you if you like.

Thanks Frank I'd like that ([email protected]). Thinking of re-doing the interior at some point. Still in good shape but a pain in the a## to keep clean looking. The original material is heavy duty but has deep grain in it. It collects the dirt and marks up easily.
Rick, your correct it is a small world, thanks for the pictures it's the only ones Ive seen from the Onieda Lake run. Nobody in my crew remembered to bring a camera! Including me!
