your def. right about the props. I have a M23 reworked for speed (68mph) and a 24p bravoI reworked down to a 23 for rougher water and better holding (64ish) I normally run the bravo, it's like putting my boat in 4x4 mode. The problem I see with my hull, is at 45 and above, there is only like 10" of boat left in the water so the more V'ed part of the hull can't cut the waves, trimming down makes it worse than running flat and ridding the tops. the other problem I see, is the seats are much further forward than a bass boat, the ride in the back seats is really pretty good, but I was just looking for opinions from you guy, I've tried everything over the last 4 years woth my boat, but have very little experiance with the others.
