Posting for a friend.
I thought I would post on the Nitro forum to see if anyone has had this happen and what the fix might be. Most of his boats have been Skeeter or Champion so this has us both confused.
My buddy has a 2010 Nitro Z7 with a 200HP Mercury, he is running a 23 Tempest prop. Not sure of the height of the motor but he did adjust it a little lower to see if it would help it did not. We even tried a 23 Tempest prop I had Mark do some work on it just made it worse last weekend at Lake Powell.
Here is the problem.
Everything is good hole shot and power and speed. When we get close to 58 the boat slips sideways while on pad, it is not a chine it feels like the boat is going to slip sideways and spin us around unless we slow down. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
James
