Good day, I have a 29 feet Cruiser Boat with 2 Merc 4.3LX & Alpha Ones. My Boat weight is 9000 lbs.
Most of the time we cruiser at low RPM (1400 to 1800) and Enjoy. At that RPM the Bow is UP a bit but confortable to navigate.
I realized that at that same RPM if I put Full Trim Down the boat hull is Flat on the water and the Bow is Full Down.
I can control the boat easyer.
My question is to ask if I should always navigate at low RPM with Full Trim Down ?
And will it affect Fuel Economy because of more drag ?
Thank You
