No not ready. The guy i got the boat from just put new transom stringers etc in. I wish he had staggered then or removed 1. Is it true with the stock 525s removing one between the weight and not overly powerful engine I would only loose 8mph?

Center drive is to far in the water the prop airiates extra ptch helps keeping the engine from over revving,
