Have some questions about trim i have 500efis in the boat running bravos and 30 p props how much trim do i need for best speed?

That's not a fixed number the same on all boats. The indicators or gauges are usually a little different boat to boat. You have to be able to tell by feel ultimately. Too much and you'll porpose some and revs will go up with no speed gain. Ideal trim is also different at each speed/rpm. Cruising at 3500 rpm has a much different trim than full speed. Experiment what's best for you boat.

Awesome looking AVS!! That boat (along with a couple others) are at the top of my list when I upgrade boats next.

+1. My 38 AVS likes a lot of trim and I have a buddy with a flat bottom 38 that is the same way. Experiment with different trim levels and don't be afraid to keep raising the drives. Like Paul said, you'll "feel" the sweet spot when you're there. Congrats on the new boat!
