i am in the process of re-powering from twin 350's to trip 300's and was wondering if anybody had a similar set up and what the
real numbers where for performance. I am also thinking of going with 4 blade props on all engines any comments on that set up.

I have a friend who had one a couple years ago.

Never rode on the boat but he told me he was at 1.0 to 1.1 at cruise with trip 300's.

Not sure of the cruising speed, but I'll bet it was hovering around 30 mph.

I remember 'cause I was surprised. Didn't think he'd climb over the 1 MPG mark w/trips.

Hopefully someone will reply who has one and can tell you definitively.
