Hey Bob,
Thanks, and my Talon, Spectre and 388 are going up for sale also. I'm going to just keep the Skater and the Hydrostream.

SL,
My 32B came from LOTO, wonder if the original owner got his paint idea's from Dave's 36?

Skater Unbie Q: Does the 30S Skater tabs help with the mid-speed hop at all?
Thanks,
Dean

I'm 53 Dean and would like to retire in the next few years so I decided to downsize. I want a 24 Progression outboard to get me to retirement. Then hopefully another tunnel hull. Congrats again and great looking paint. Keep us posted on how you like it in comparison to your other tunnels.

The props on your 32 look interesting, they look like mercury outboard humpback cleavers. I didn't know those could be ran on bravos. If that is in fact what they are the outboard prop technology has come a long way, some of the new outboard props can pick up 5 mph over those.

Just as an FYI. Many years ago I had a 28 Checkmate straight bottom twin 502s, Bravos, I ran a set of Mazco 3 blade outboard cleavers for top end runs, they worked amazing, had a set of mirages for everyday use.

Ended up selling those props to someone from the Discovery Bay area 20 years ago

Dean- I would update your props. That will help get rid of the hop.

Yeah I had a set on my 24 Eliminator Daytona, I have quite a few sets of props I'm going to try, 1st up, a set of 5 blade Herrings.
Thanks,
