[QUOTE="YamahaC40Guy, post: 106577, member: 953"] 18"? Really? I've never heard that. I keep the motor trimmed-in (down/prop closest to the transom) for the "hole shot", lifting the boat out of the water then lift it once it hits plane. On calm water, near open throttle, I'd say a little more than half the bottom is in contact with the water. There is a "sweet spot" with the trim of course, you can feel it. The boat moves quickly, but the "oilcanning" can occur even when it isn't going that fast. It seems to have more to do with the size of wave, and the angle I hit it. Hope that makes sense.
