HI all-I bought a tracker pro 16 2010 model with a 30hp merc 4 stroke and empty it planes out ok-but with my buddy that weighs 300 and all our gear(2 batteries, fuel, water in livewell, etc ) it only planes if the waters slick--and takes a while then-like a block or 2-fighting any headwind at all and it struggles and won't plane unless my buddy moves up to the front deck--sounds like its laboring all the time---when I bought it they had the motor all the way down as low as it would go--I've since moved it up to the bottom holes--(bout even with anticavitation plate)--it still holds the bow awfull high I think and I'm wondering if a fin would help or a wedge to get the nose down or maybe a prop?? By myself with no gear it ran ok--29 mph with a gps-- the weight is not distributed very well but I don't really want to go rewiring everything. Suggestions?? Thanks,
