I had 24 pitch props on it, could have spun 25's, but it would have been comparable to the Bravo 1's, so no improvement and less moving parts with the 1's. Tried a pair of the bravo 2 drives, only had a set of 23 pitch props, it lost cruise and top end speed also. I can get bigger props for it, but they cost about a $1,000 each, so I have to save my allowance for awhile to get them. So its back to the 1's for now.

Got it. I sold my 32 a few weeks back. My only Marinette is my heavily modified 28. I still pop in here to see what you are doing with yours. I love it when people take these apart and modify them in different ways. Why start from scratch when you can buy such a well made hull for cheap.
