[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 443962, member: 12995"] I don't know if my boat is a fair comparison since I have the tunnel. But when I was testing different mounting heights, I kept going up 1 hole until I got excessive spray and then went back down 1 hole. I had porpoising with it trimmed in all the way and the spray got worse as I trimmed it out (so that's opposite of what you're having). I added the transom wedges to get it trimmed in a little more and that was the sweet spot. I can run full throttle with it trimmed in and get no spray but if I trim the motor up just a little bit, I get spray. But my motor isn't in the water as far because of the tunnel so my spray isn't bad. It seems weird that you get more spray when it's trimmed in farther, unless you have it mounted too high and being trimmed in is causing the water to bounce off the front edge of the jet intake.
