The xs are not as strong as the 300x and I don't know if they are as strong as the 300 ProMax either. Very similar but 300x's would make a difference.

I would like to see that too, and I totally agree.

Although, I am enjoying my fuel economy!!

It wouldnt have a hard time catching yours, you only have one prop.:party-smiley-048:

I could only imagine. I would love to have a 30. I too am interested what it will run with the 300x's

OK, I'm hi-jacking my own thread. I need details on this idea? Has it been done before? Are you sure you want to go away from OB's? My buddy has a 30 with inboards, and I've wondered if it's possible to convert from OB to In board. But yours is a 28, isn't the extra weight of small blocks and drives too much?

ExtremeSkater - Your 30 looks great.

Does anyone know the weight difference between the 28 and the 30 similarly equipped (either hull only or rigged with the same outboard's)?

Thanks.
