well she does come out of the hole pretty good,,motor revs good,,don`t think it`s it`s too water logged,,cause i know all about that working with the trackers..just got to figure out how to get more RPM`s with out lowering the pitch,,cause i hear all these guiys running 26-27 pitch and figure you got to either have a light boat,,or a hell of a motor..lol i`ll play with the hack plate,,and one thing i don`t do is blow that big roostertail,,to me thats not pushing but blowing out,,,,all show,,

in that case, bump it up 1/2 inch and try it,maybe even try an inch and see what difference good or bad it makes.if its worse,go the other way

you might want to post on bass boat central about your boat. they have forums dedicated to bass boat setups,and another on propellers. lots of information on the site

Watch your water pressure when raise your motor up

Watch your water pressure when raise your motor up

definately...that was so common sense,i didnt think to put it...lol

well I checked and played with it some last night,,I`m running about 33/4 below the pad,,I push 25lbs pressure running..think I`ll take her up about 3/4 in and start from there...but I think you all are right,,she is a heavy built boat,,I cut the front deck out to install a pan,,and that sucker was 2 layers of 3/4 wood...my poor cordless saw had a hell of a time going thru it,,,but I figured it still should be a 60mph boat or close..

Try as you may, but I think that is about all you will get. Ran my JP from 3-1/2 to almost 2-1/2 and never got 60. What it lacks in speed, it will more than make up in ride. You will spend a ton in fuel, but you will be safe and comfortable.
