Re: Dumb question-Flushing motors

A 292 300hp 350s is heavy on the a$$ end and you have to be careful not to flood the boat when coming off of plane. I have never ridden in a 312 but the added wieght may make it similar to the 292...

Re: 05' 353 w/600sci's drive height or props????

I just came out of a 353 w/boxes so I am familiar with the attitude of this boat. Only difference is 100hp more per side. If I was over trimming the boat would never bite and would instead start...
