and what props??

[Burty]

doesn't really matter as they will all give a rooster but ideally a surface piercing one like a chopper or ET don't expect to be going faster though as it all down to setup etc

As Burty says its all down to setup. The large white Scorpion in Lymington that produces the amazing roosters is, it has to be said, a case of lots of show & not enough go. To the point where the new owners will probably ditch the surface drives in favour of more conventional legs.

After that boat was built (hey the customer got what the customer wanted) Scorpion destroyed the releant mouldings so they couldn't be persuaded to build another...

i must admit seeing it move it looked uncomfortable on the water over wake!! not typical of the behaviour expected of a scorpion! What surface drives are they?? think its a real shame they got the YTS boy to paint the bottom in black anti foul!!! looks awful!
