SWEET JOB.
Looks like a completely different boat with the
faring / hatchs and colors (been lurking for awhile).
And on a personal note; thanx for taking another of those "Palm Beach" colors schemes off an other wise perfectly good Formula

Russ,
Tom and Gary at Hydromotive are very knowledgeable and helpful and I will be contacting them for props on the 382 this summer. It sounds like your boat runs very strong for the set you have, up here in the fresh water the 311's with mags run more like mid sixty's. It takes a lot of power to move these 311's but with a couple 500+ hp motors it acts like a totally different boat.

Let us know the results, I am curious how it reacts to the power. I had mine out yesterday with 4 people full fuel and hot weather with glassy water got 70 on the gps. Have been seeing 72 most of the time.
I piped straight through the swim platform and although I didn't expect a performance gain it picked up about 2mph
