Well now it's out haha ! At that low of RPM @ acceleration
it's def not turbo'd (SORRY 30CTSUTPHEN). So it has to
be BIG cu.in. with a little compression ? I got to say you have
found the "G" spot on that Sutphen, you have to be around
12 to 13 % on prop slip ! Boat weighs in around 7500 with
fuel give or take, and you know the pony's so do the math....
...... POST UP SOME PICS SHOWTIME83 !

I will try to get some more pics, decent ones at least. The boat is still a long way from being done, interior needs to be redone. I would like to re do the dash and all gauges, lots of little misc items also. I do not know much about prop slip, the props are 17x24 4 blades if I remember correctly. I have read time and time again on here that surface drives do not provide much bow lift. I can now say that is innaccurate, that video was at 0 trim, or neutral however you would like to put it. The entire boat lifts up and runs dry. I did set it up with the props spinning in, which is how my other boat is also so i am used to the docking manners of it. The Sutphen factory was a big help in giving me knowledge of how to set the boat up also, can not say enough thanks to them for the info they gave me when i called with questions about 26 year old boat!

Surface drives make that hull run great. Right after you get on plane and continue throttling into it you feel the whole boat lift. Especially if you have them spinning in. It's a cool feeling and I can tell you that the same hull with Bravos does nothing like that.
