How big Setback

[Ttl]

How much more speed is the stock lower gonna handle? I'd say without a cone or a sportmaster, your pissing in the wind.

I’m currently working on mounting a cone with lwp and skeg is now with a torque tab.

There’s no significant pad on that boat. Most of your lift is coming from the lifting strakes. You will never get the boat to only run on the keel/pad, it’s too narrow. I don’t think you are going to find much more speed. You might try a prop with more bow lift. As for setback, you could probably move the motor back a bit, I’d try a 4” extension between the boat and current plate, it’s cheap. The only problem I see is the motor is already mounted quite high on the existing plate, it’s putting a lot of torque on the transom. It’s also going the make the transom sit lower in the water and on the first shot it’s already precariously low.

im aware that the pad Is narrow but I know that the boat is capable of gaining more lift.
i have bought a 28P promax and hopefully it can do the trick when i get the lwp and nose cone mounted so I can raise the engine further up.

That Mercury chopper prop is probably why you arent lifting the bow,I ran one on my 21 Daytona with 300x,it was 28p,switched to a 29pMazco RE3 and gained 15 mph no bull****.Mazco and Hydromotive props have more bowlift that any props I ever ran
