    Hey Chris, been trying to get a hold of you. My buddy just put a whipple on his boat and the 32 bravo he got is too big. He wants to trade for a 30 pitch or possibly buy a 30z I thought you had one.

    Well, I just realized the blue ones are semi dry and now I'm worried they are gonna be too loud. I've spoken with a few guys about this already. I'm wanting some other people's thoughts as well. Will I notice a huge difference in sound from the black to the blue ones. I believe Corey was running...
