Currently trying to set up my new 188 for optimal performance. Prop to keel is at about 8" right now from factory with no jack plate... seems a little low and handles like it's too low (tight steering.)
Has anyone dialed in this new style hull yet? I just received it this June after my original 2016 188 was replaced for a cracked hull. The 2021 hull appears to be completely redesigned including a stepped transom.
2021 RT188
2016 90 e-tec (off my original 188 hull)
13x17 rogue 4 blade
37 mph @ 5200rpm
2 average size guys, tackle and full tank of fuel on slight chop.
