Prop selection for the 190 Sea ray

I just picked up a 1998 190 Sea Ray Signature with the 350 in it to play with. It was a good deal so I figured why not. I took it for a water test yesterday and I was actually a little disappointed...

Re: Bravo-1 vs. Revolution-4 (Labbed vs. Stock)

Re: 87 242 thru-hull exhaust options

Mark, do you think you could send me some pics of your engine compartment when you get a chance. I want to see how the exhaust runs from the risers out the back of the boat.
Thank you,

Anyone have any pictures of a boat with a single 330 around so I can get an idea where I need to cut the holes...It seems like they just come out of the risers and just go straight back through the...

Re: Boat names

I named mine the "Intimidater" after the late great #3. The boat also happens to be Earnhard Goodwrench colors. I just wish the 330 had thru hulls so it at least sounded intimidating...winter...

Re: 87 242 thru-hull exhaust options

Ok here is pics of my platform. The boat has 1 454, so I would not need anything in the center. Does this look like the silent thunder platform, just without the holes?
