I don't think you would want/need it for the speed of this P1 boat?

No strake modification on this boat. Stock hull.
Only running Yanmar 440's. They did an amazing job though, ran with boats powered with Mercury Racing 525's ( 540hp ).

Clay Advisain[sp?] that raced the 388 back around 99-2000 said his was a hand full in the upper 80's,being he tried the rocker tabs ,and other stuff.


So what speeds are they running Iam guessing 75-80?
