  as I can. This hull seems to like the motor pretty high.

  "Currently working on setup.  Boat has bounce problem  
  when trying to trim up.  Also have to get tach checked."  
                 Updated 2/22 - "Took fin off cavitation plate. Stopped the bouncing. Boat   
  was trying to overtrim to get nose up high enough to get on   
  the pad.  Also changed prop to a 17" Rapture instead of the  
  19" SST. Boat now turns 5400 rpms; unsure of the speed -  
  it bounces between 45 and 50."
