I had a 78 wellcraft airslot 165 with a 90 chrysler and it got on plane great. The boat was in bad shape but I love the model so much I bought the same one, a couple years older, a 75'. Found a great deal on a motor and got a 86' Johnsin 110.
Boat hauls ass and goes 42 where the other boat only went 33. The problem is that this boat has a very hard time getting in plane and I don't know why since it's literally the same model.
TBS a lot of water did drain out after the trip, I'm thinking it was rain water hiding below. But if it was enough water to make it point up why did I top out so fast? Also,I noticed that the inner hull seems ro be foamed to a certain exten. Can foam water log? I hope not because I'll be SOL. Lastly, do those hydrofoil fins help as much as they're advertised? Thoughts please.
