[QUOTE="SmallJaws, post: 485779, member: 31443"] I have a Lund 1860 Predator, what is really a Lowe Roughneck 1860 ModV side council with Sponsoms. I have added a plate and put a 80 Merc Jet on it. I have been searching and reading about trim and splash plates. Do users typically run with motor trimmed all the way down? My motor trimmed down has the front of the foot maybe 1/2" below the lowest point of the ModV transom. If I trim all the way down it brings water into the transom. What options are there for a modV splash plate. Trimmed down boat runs pretty well no porpoise and runs about 31mph with me and my wife. Trim up just a little water over back goes away and gain about 1mph. Thanks, Jimmy[img][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_4938.jpg"]110163._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_4940.jpg"]110162._xfImport[/ATTACH][/img] [/QUOTE]
