Default Turning Prop's In Vs Out

Has Anyone Turn The Prop's In Instead Of Out On A 38 Sonic. I Was Told That It Would Help Keep The Bow Down In The Rough Water And Also Give A Litle Bit More Sppeed , I Also Herd That Docking Will Be A Bit Harder Does Any One Have Any More Info On This .
What About Turning The Boat At Say 60 Mph Anything Difrent Going To Happen ?
Thank'
Mike

Hi Mike,just what u already heard and stated is true(harder to dock,but a lil more top speed)...at 60 it wont make much difference...
the handling will be a lil slower,like delayed...try it and just use reverse for forward before u reverse the cables.

I tried it in my 35 and it didn't give me any more speed...and docking was tough. 38 may be different though......like carboy said, run in reverse before going through the work of switching the cables. let us know how it works.
