    Got the water PSI gauge hooked up. Had water where I was ,came up 1/4in. Had water, came up another 1/4in and still had water. Gonna keep playing with it but my legs got cold standing in the water to move it. It ran better and got it up to 80 once without hopping but when it does its happening at about 70-72.

    Ok, I did a thing. I was laying in bed a few days ago and had this idea that if I pushed the prop shaft to the right by indexing the jack plate it might help with the prop torque that is pushing the boat to the right. I had high Hope's but turns out I was wrong. The boat still pulls hard right even with the prop shaft about 1in off center. I still have psi so I guess I can come up more but I know I'm almost as high as I can go. It's good at low speeds but about 70 I've got 90 degrees in the wheel to hold it straight. I'm not a small guy either, I'm about 240 and it's all I want. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    This thing is not getting any better. I'm finally as high as I can go without loosing water pressure but the prop torque is still ridiculous. It doesn't hop as bad as it did but it will absolutely not turn left while I'm in the throttle. Does anybody have any ideas about what's going on with this thing?
