[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 499390, member: 32586"] Well I got a 14' Mirro with a similarly shaped hull. I'm guessing that like me your best bet is to put a hydrofoil fin on the motor. I haven't done it yet, because I've now got a bigger motor for it, a 25 Johnny. Also a 9.9 might be a little bit smallish. I've pushed mine with an 18 and a 14 and I'd hate to go any smaller. The 18 gets me on plane right quick and then I can back down a bit, but I gotta keep it pretty revved to keep the bow down. I do intend to install a fin though.
