need more bow lift
89 29 Fever, twin stock 350s, non counter rotating alphas spinning stock 21 Mirages (not plus)
I get my max speed trimmed all the way out.....like 7 on the indicator......any more then Im into the power trim......I saw a video of me running on a Poker Run in this mode and it was running real nice, right on the back of the boat, water spray coming out about the last 6 or 8 inches of the hull......Is there anything I can have done to the props for more bow lift so I dont have to trim the heck out of it......a friend says I need more power to get the boat to run up on the pad better......I am planning on having a lower changed and going to a counter rotating set up (props spinning out)......would that help???.....can much be done with the props????......doug

Re: need more bow lift
We can adjust the cup in the blades and induce some more bow lift for you, no problem. But remember that the prop is always last, after any motor modifications.

Re: need more bow lift
Yes the props can be adjusted to induce additional bow lift.
Also, rotating the props inward tends to plant the stern more which aids in carrying the bow too. The idle in gear control can be hampered with this rotation though. Some boats work better than others depending on the CG. You need to try it to see what suits you best.
