I took my (new to me) boat out last weekend and heres what i got out of it.
1978 Vip fish/ski
1977 140 hp rude
5200 rpm wot
52 mph gps
19p alum 3 bld
trim up to 1/2 trim by the gauge would loose the bite on the prop right before that trim setting would start to porpoise or however you spell it, i could trim down abit and it would stop porpoiseing and still run about 50.Does that sound like it pretty close to running as good as it can or not?
Just thought id run it by you guys cause y'all certainly know alot more than i do. Thanks
