    Thanks. This is my 9th skeeter. But last one was an 08. First with a hydraulic plate. Older boats seemed to lift more than this one.

    I am interested in this as well. My buddy said trim up. Open it up on the water. He said if flat calm, adjust jack plate to where it hits top speed aka the sweet spot. That will be where to keep it under normal conditions. However I haven’t opened it up to WOT.

    I’ll try 7-9 next time I’m out.

    Thanks for the replies, what happens if you run it up too high?

    If you run it too high you loose water pressure and increase chances of slip
