There are a couple of things I would look into before I would pursue any more prop mods. First off, even the best bottom paint job is going to cost at least 1-2 knots. If it’s in need of bottom paint and is really rough and thick I would consider a strip and paint. One other thing is how high the water stain line is on the hull. I would go fill her with fuel and get a good weight on the hull at the nearest truck stop. Several of us have 300 Zukes on our 23’s that float at rest with the rear, outside chine at the waterline with no people aboard. Rule out the heavy hull first before we start talking about bracket height, setback, tabs and overall hull COG.
You have a great boat and like the rest of us owners, we all want the best performance. The knowledge base of members here will help you get there.
