[QUOTE="River runner, post: 363987, member: 15062"] I have a 1650 Lowe flat bottom with a 55hp Suzuki jet. When the boat gets on plane the front seems to just plow through the water. Making it hard to steer and pretty slow. I can trim the motor up and it helps a bit but just doesn't seem to be riding on the water like it should. Would my motor being to low cause this or what? All the weight is in the rear. If the motor is to low will a jack plate work okay since it is a jet? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
