no idea,,,cleaned it and wrapped it up for now,,wont really do anything with it till winter hits..
Since I dont have a lot of extra toy money probably be a couple stock 350s or 454s.

Took a few side by side pics with my 27 Carrera,, the 32 is a much wider and taller boat.

Also on your 27 is the trim tabs mounted straight across instead of following the V. Also they look to be mounted completely far outside to far outside. How well has that worked for your app. Just asking. I understand running at top speed the tabs are completely out of the water especially being far outside(s).

so far tabs have worked great,, yes at high speed they are out of the water if they are trimmed all the way up so they do not drag , however if you trim them down they will hit the water just fine since they are 30" long...
