    Just a thank you to everyone here in the Gambler family who has helped.

    I cant thank yall enough for the help. I have been fighting this boat since the beginning and Im finally heading in the right direction. Ever since Ive owned the boat I have been fighting crazy chine walk starting as early as 66-67 mph. With the help of the BBC I have been able to slowly get my set up headed in the right and learn how to drive this thing.
    My current setup is

    99' 2200
    01' 250 XB
    12" Manual Rapid Jack
    Prop to Pad 3.0"
    26P Bravo 1 XS (more like a 27P according to steves custom prop shop where I bought it)
    5650 RPM's
    72 MPH gps (then it starts walking)

    Im slowly getting there thanks to yall. And every time I take it out I can work the steering wheel better and better to prevent the walk.

    short quick movements with the wheel. Assuming the motor is right, you should run low 80's with that XB / 2200. Need to get the RPM's up a bit..
