I'm thinking maybe the motor might want to come up another notch. When I got the boat it was at the bottom. After watching the plate, I brought it up 2. With this prop, I am able to hit the trim limit without sucking air. It jumps up and rides nice and high, but maybe there is more? I did not get a chance to watch the vent plate this time, so before I move I'll do that. I was keeping an eye on water pressure though, and it never faltered. Should I be able to vent the prop?

Overall very happy with the way this boat rides now. I'll have to let Ken@propgods know. Thanks for the recommendation, guys.
