[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 225061, member: 1523"] This is the second time you've typed this, it's starting to sound like some kind of juvenile put down... [-X If you don't have anything positive and constructive to add perhaps you shouldn't... That makes sense. Any of the boats I've ran (IO, IB jet, OB jet) seemed to run fastest right on the edge of porpusing when the front end feels like it's fluttering in the air as long as the pump was staying loaded. When they porpused they didn't seem faster but I never chased the idea or had a GPS to figure it realisticly. The paddle wheel on my boat shows different speed depending on where it's located (I guess from different pressure levels under the hull at different places). I wondered if the porpuse action is loading the pump and motor harder vs. just changing the hull dynamics. Like I said, interesting stuff and I love understanding the why and how vs. 'just because'.
