The boats like a shorter drive height and nose cone?

I should be around 90 with my 500s and 32P Bravos right?

Mid 90's or upper? Its a $ 15K upgrade...not sure it worth that in resale. What do you guys think?

I already swapped the 500's for the 496's. Was extremely pleased with the results.

I just was wondering how much value the 525 would add to the boat and down the road if it was a more desireable option for trade in or a buyer.

that boat with the 500's is much more appealing than the 496's, not sure how much more it would be with 525's,
what speeds were you seeing with the 496's?
