Default Porpoising

Skillet,
If the boat is porpoising with the engine trimmed all the way down, I'm not confident Merc will have good results for you. Might want to talk to the dealer and see about their cutting you a deal on trim tabs.

A whale tale might work a bit, but it's a duct-tape solution on a beautiful new boat. It's in the dealer's interest to get that dialed in. With a 115 you're not overpowered or overweight; the light weight of the bow needs to be compensated, and the only way I know of to do it right is with tabs.

Good Luck!

"DEPLORABLE" would be like naming it "HILLARY'. I doubt that Skillet wants to be labeled as a loser.

Skillet, I prefer to spend time with a good loser than a snobbish winner.

I am like Donald Duck and don't give a quack.

Skillet was that you in the white Vexus Saturday morning at the mouth of Drake's Creek? I was fishing the mouth of Drake's when a white Vexus came by. I was in the red and white Lowe center console.

Yea that was me. My brother and I went to try some grass beds with no luck. Drakes was full of boats so we were trying to get out and away from all the traffic. Been more boats out this year than I have ever seen.

I was trying to find some bass out on some of the ledges. Did find some on a different ledge than Drake's Creek. No size to them though.
