I just put some props on for the first time on the new boat. It has 2x 454's with bravo 1's.. i assume the starboard drive is clockwise rotation and the port is counter clockwise, both props spin out away from each other. Is this right?

does the boat move forward when you put the drive in forward ? if so then you did it right. if not... then no.

it was rough as hell out there this weekend. It ran 60 on gps with my amateur hands at the trim and throttle with 5 ppl and full fuel tank plus all of our gear and the dog.. I dont really know what to expect out of it. I have one drive that seems to drop in trim, plus only about half of the gauges worked. Still thuogh, you could expect these kinds of things from a 93 model boat.
