Motion, in an earlier post you wrote, "it is turnkey, reliable, but you do need to know how to drive."
Could you elaborate on " you do need to know how to drive." Is it really sensitive to control at speed with the triple setup over twins or other?
How bad does the middle gear case get abused on the 28 set up with trips? Definitely a beautiful looking boat!

Thank you for the quick reply. It was what I expected but I have not heard anything of the handling of the 28's with trips- i've run 24's with Bridgeport's and a 32 with trip's- the 32 was later dropped to twins as the beating on the mid engine gear case wasn't worth the $$$ for the extra few mph. Same story with the 28/trips?
What year is the 28 and the motors?

i have never had a problem with the center gearcase, i think the weight of the 32 is much to blame, and of course the height in which it runs. it has always been a lake boat for me. the boat is a 93. the engines are 2000's

Joe got bent up a little in a boat crash and was in and out of the hospital. If you're interested call him, Good guy.
