Ditto on the steering and k-planes ( 380's would be best,
right Jason ?)

That boat is now in Houston and currently he's trying props he's got it running 81 on gps with 30p Bravo's

i could never get the 30's to have rpm's high enough to get the speed over 81 or 82. i put a set of 4 blade herring's that
where at 29's to get to 84.

I think you must be thinking of the 35...the
30 doesnt have a notch, although 1 was made,
( I think it had 6.2's in it )
and Hawkeye converted a salvage boat to one.

Take more power than that to run a true 90mph Mid 80's though.

I drove the boat from Colorado in 2006 just before it went back to the bank.. with 7 good sized men and low fuel I got it to run 82 on the gps speedo...It did want to chine walk some but I was able to steer out of it, that is a awesome setup IMO with the 525's..
