    I was out with Will Smith and Casey (works for Will) today. The 34's work well for me, I need just a little bit more prop. Here is a prop suprise, the 28's, 30's, and 32's Bravo props that we had own(ed) made the boat jump up on plane no problem, these are stock Bravo stock props. These 34's I just purchased looked labbed (great looking props) and cavatate when getting on plane but cruise well; as Poker Run application (80 mph at 4500 rpm) the 34's are the sh*t and are just about at the rev limiters at WOT. I did not expect the props to cavatate when planing, I expected just the opposite - a lot of bite when getting on plane bite No big deal, I will get Murphy's Propeller Shop to add cup, and blueprint/match the 34's.

    I will ask Will Smith about your shirts (Steve -what is your last name - email me at joneslaw@comcast.net) for the shirts, we are going out boating on Friday (weather permitting). I heard this one today at Phantom from the owner of a Fountain Raceboat - Miccousukee, props are like women - every one is different and you never know what to expect - that was true today.

    One other thing - I like Sarasota!

    my 30's cavatate just just after the boat lays over just a little,but it's not that bad. i took my sand bags out the the front and i can tell a big difference in the whole attitude of the boat. i'm glad to here your getting that boat home soon, make sure you get some good pictures down there. if you go out friday make sure Will gives you a ride like this pic he sent me of my boat racing in miami

    Looks great.
    wow is that rubrail low towards the stern.
    I like how the entire transom is glass, that the rail doesn't continue.

    My father installed that rub-rail two years ago, Taco -stainless steel insert. Yes it sits low in the back, the hot-rod look.

    Thank you, Steve. The running shots by Steve Jr. are great. I do like the back to back picture, that was a good idea.

    Pictures taken from Sarasota, FL last month - Will Smith and I in Sarasota Bay, testing, picturing taking. This was before I had the props labbed (labbing was not beneficial thus far).

    Will Smith put it up the beach pretty far, I was a little shocked, but we pushed it right off, we had lunch there at a waterfront restaurant. The boat is spinning 34" Bravos, and the peak horsepower for the motors is at 5000 rpm. Here are some more shots.
