I brought the boat to the dealer, they said the trailer was not properly adjusted, transom was 8 inches behind the banks, hanging. That's changed the form of the hull, basically, it sagged. They adjusted the trailer and trimmed the hull. I assume it is better, but I don't really see a major improvement. Any way, beware of the trailer adjustment, make sure the boat is 100% on the banks.
Switching the subject, I am having hard time bringing it up on plane. I push the throttle all the way up, then it takes about a minute for the boat to get on plane. And sometimes the bow never goes down, with engine revving and me being frustrated. Is it trimming, pitch? What is the right pitch for 150 DC? I have 11.
