stick a button under the hotfoot that activates a timing relay for trim. Figure out how long you want the delay, set the relay and you'll have a consistent hands free automatic trim for racing. Not my idea but can be done for less than a benji.
@SmalltownBassin they make trim timers that all the bigger classes run but my class isnt aloud to run them. they make a huge difference! super consistent
If you don't have a 24v trim system, I highly recommend. It's going to take a deep trim tuck to launch out flat, but then a real quick trim to keep it from immediately going into a porpoise. Trim planes on the hull can help, but it should be doable without. A cavitation planer, right prop, weight placement, engine height, setback, can all be sweet-spotted to make it work
I may be selling a 1995 Merc 2.5 its race built.. only 10 break in hours on it.. It revs to 11k rpms... looking for $9500 for it. Let me know if yall know somebody. Im in Cape Coral. Im just not sure its the right motor for my project 21' Skater
Aren’t you moving at a couple mph when you stage, I chopped throttle boat flattened then hit it at the light and the boat launched flatter. This was in a 14 Allison with a heavily modded 75 stinger, Monty moter
Your gonna be big man I can see it. So far I love you content I have nothing to complain about

Try offset 6” with out measurements?Roll out of the hole flatter. Won’t have to tuck the motor so much.

Supposed to come in at 7mph
Dude you need to lift your motor a bit a hydronic stern plate is the way to go .so she won't flop.
Try a few more inches of setback
What kind of a hull is that? Good luck at the races, Great video, thanks
Its a powercraft hull. Similar to a checkmate
