I have done a search and read all the forums, can anyone tell me what they know about this problem, what the years where it happened, and if it was notches, stepped, etc...... hulls,

The T/S Mystique handles incredibly well. No funny stuff, no issues. This one flat out rocks. Also has a flat transom (no notch)

dreamer, thanks, did you test any non step, i am going to look at a ts 2002 as well, and some non steps, im wondering if the right set up could help the non step, props in ot out, drives, maybe even ext boxes or filling in the notch on the transom

Don't be so sure of that.
