Ok, SO that didn't work.
Anyhow, if ya clik on the link u will see the boat.
It's a 2004 2352 Trophy PRO

My previous life was with a 17' Grummn with a 25 tiller...great fishing boat, and still have it. This BIG BOAT thing is all new to me.

#1..prop: Clik through the pics an nu will see the Merc leg. What's all the hub-bub on the stanless props?
And where would I find the torque on the prop nutÉ This one is a little loose and I would expect it should be tight.

#2..Engine: Again in the pics u will see it's a 5LChev (305), any idea on the HP rating, and the fuel range.
3.. Girls: Is my wife of 19 years going to get mad at me cuz the boat is a girl magnet......or is it just a fishing boat.

Thanks for any help. I can`t get this thing out in the water untill about Marchof 2010...winter is upon me


Hope this is in the right spot...if not MODS please move.


Greg

Con-grats on the boat
1. stainless better for large and heavy boats less flex, but there is a trade off if you boat in an area that is full of stumps and other submerged critters. well ALU is more forgiving. But with a 23 footer I don't think that is the case.
2. the 5.0 was 220 from the website.
Go to the Trophy website and look at the past models, your boat is in there.
3. one can never tell what a wife will get mad at from day to day, play it safe and stay on the water.
