[QUOTE="majkowskid, post: 227526, member: 5115"] Ranchero. Thanks a lot for the response! We took a video on my buddy's phone and we're working on getting it uploaded. I'm pretty sure that it's not a weight issue. It actually ran BETTER with only two people in the boat, than with a third sitting up front. (37 mph with 3 people in it, but it had to be STILL water). what's funny is that it actually runs better with the nose sticking up out of the water (before it planes up) than it does on plane in any type of chop. do you not think it could be from the ribs on the bottom of the boat that are in this pic? or is my spoon area not right? [img]https://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s100/majkowskid/jeep/ribs.jpg[/img] this is what i was trying to explain about cutting some slits in the ribs to direct water to the pump... also thought maybe one of the higher end intake grates with the scoop on it may help keep the pump loaded?
