Last year was our first season with the boat so we had a learning curve. I put new 26P 4blade bravos on and that did the trick. The previous owner must have hit something to the point where the blades were not per manufacture spec. I don't need tabs any more and do tuck the drives. I try to roll into the throttle pretty steady til I hit 3000 and it comes right out of the water. I also try to get a little momentum before getting into the throttle. All is good now thanks!

Mach, what is you measurement from prop shaft to bottom of your swim platform? I've measured a couple other 33's and my x dimension is much higher. Although the 33's where different years than mine.
