[QUOTE="ericman, post: 437697, member: 11909"] It seems that maybe the bottom of the hull rising back up to the transom might actually be shooting water right past the motor, preventing enough water from getting to the prop to "jet" me forward. I'm going to make a homemade hydrofoil and try that out. I may also make a 6 inch wide center mounted trim tab for the bottom of the transom if that does not work. I've read several testimonials about hydrofoils on forum.iboats to at least see some promise. Thanks for all your input. I will let you all know what my results are next week. [/QUOTE]
