[QUOTE="David Atkins, post: 500664, member: 33198"] Many things can cause your boat to porpoise, load distribution, engine trim, engine set back, no trim tabs; the list goes on. Being a flat bottom boat adds to your dilemma and porpoising issues, I would most certainly look for the most obvious, engine placement, set back and trim, that being said then maybe adding trim tabs might be a cost worthy addition; always- always check costs before making any changes as you don't want to spend money and not get a decent return. You can also look into transom pods as they may help with this issue. My boat has then and I have never had any porpoising issues, I also use a 6 inch hydralic jack plate which helps and also allows me to go into shallower water too! i have 1860 CC [/QUOTE]
