@@strata114 man I'm revisiting this post and other videos alike trying to get around this "hook" in my 1520cc keywest, for the life of me I can't seem to get rid of it, the boat went from a super sluggish 70hp to a whopping 115hp with little to no gain in mph I love the boat it holds sentimental value from times with my father so it's not leaving me but want desperately to get the hull over 45 or 50mph any last ditch thoughts of correction? I've gone route of letting sit off trailer and applying force downward for a bit as well as fairing the bottom and sanding but just seems I'm making it worse I'm at a loss
Hey champ thanks for touching on this topic as I have searched all over on these issue to no avail, my question is could the hook or bump cause water disruption to the outboard and cause cavitation or bubbles ahead of engine causing a hot condition or the prop to catch air and begin to cavitate?
What about a bump on the side of the boat I have a mako pro skiff 17 and have 2 bumps on the left side and 1 on the ride side of hull boat is only 5 months old
A hook causes a suction under the boat and prevents it from getting bow lift when trimmed out ar speed
