Reworked the back of the hatch....the way the hatch is designed it tapers forward.....rear vents act like a cowl induction....I opened them way up and diamond plated it. They are only 330’s but opening them up gave me 2mph believe it or not......
I like the 320....post a few pics if you get a chance....

I believe the 2 mph. That’s the one weakness of these boats. There is not enough natural airflow into the bilge and starves the motors for air. Opening my hatch a few inches helps me get those last few mph.
