              I agree, I have 4 green boats Lol but I really like the scheme on this one. Great job ProBoat. On a side note I noticed it has a flat bottom strut. Interesting

                Running video is on the Pro Boat Facebook page.

                I'm loving the flat bottom struts lately. I've been putting them on most everything. It makes the boat so much more responsive to strut adjustments. It acts like a trim tab and helps provide a good amount of transom lift.

                  Looks like I found a break away rudder replacement for my Impulse 31 V3.

                    The strut rudder combo looks terrific. Really like the one piece strut bracket. Will make an excellent combo for the small transom footprint of a rigger. We just need the part numbers to be corrected since currently it is listed as the same as the the UL-19, which cannot be correct.

                      I saw that later in the afternoon yesterday, ride attitude looks completely different than a geico/bj. Looks great out there. 60 mph is awesome out of the box, is that prop untouched too?

                        This is a beautiful boat! Sure wish it was out before I got into the DF 34 Hydro... The sponsons on the ProBoat look much more correct and would have saved me a ton of work on the modifications I put on the DF Hydro. Oh well, next build....

                            I assumed so. Pretty good out of the box

                              The add says it's a stainless prop, so probably cut very close on the CNC, then just blade balanced working the spines of the blades. I'm so it's hand sharpened by someone... At that speed, if it weren't balanced and sharpened you'd think it would do some driveline damage.

                              I want one!
