sweet, sounds good so far, what speeds do you see with what motors, and can my 425hp push these as well?

Are you coming out West for the Poker Run? I will let you try a set of stocker 23P Mirage props. They should work great for fresh water low swell application.

I am usually lurking around The Dunes in Newport. A few of us ran this weekend. The water was very flat and the speeds were high. We ran from Newport to Long Beach, which is around 25 miles, hard. I was at 4700-5100 RPMs the whole trip up and back. Less than 3 weeks til the SCOPE Run.

I am always up for running! The Yard House is a great place to check out some HOT offshore boats. Slip space is limited to around 24, so arrive early. The docking is tight for a 38 footer, but there are dock hands to assist.

I am dropping of the boat at Pfaff in the morning for fluid change and check up. I should be ready for the weekend. Maybe some performance mods? Definately going 20-21 and poker run.
