[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 274678, member: 7791"] Yeah that 15 should plane that boat easily. It has to be incorrect trim position, improper weight distribution, or maybe the motor is WAY over propped? Get every bit of weight into the front of the boat and then get your motor into the #2 pin slot. If the bow is still riding high then put it into the #1 slot closest to the transom. If this still doesn't work then you may have other issues, either prop or engine related. My 1987 15hp Johny planes my 1467t lowe deep V with about 900 lbs total weight. Not very fast mind you, but she will plane it :) [/QUOTE]
