Hello all, i have an older bass boat with a 150 2 stroke and manual jack plate with about 4-7 inchs of set back, i have porpoising in the boat when im below 42 mph unless inhave the trim all the way down and im not sure if its a motor height issue or a lack of prop pitch, my rpm on the tach seems to match my mph speed very closely ie 3100rpm 29-31 mph depending on load and conditions, the boat is 17-18.5ft long and the prop is yamaha ss 21 pitch, my motor height seems about right cav plate above water. I recently raised it just to try about inch or so and i noticed that that boat stayed on a plane at lower speed before falling off. I'm thinking i dont have enough pitch to hold the bow up. The boat planes very quickly either by my self or with a full load of gear and 3 people, also my top speed is about 51 mph no matter the load in the boat and i dont recall what the max rpm was but i know it seem to low for the pitch of the prop so maybe my gauge is out how ever it is new and the idle rpm seems to be about right. So im kinda confused on direction i need to go. I do have a timing light that can read rpm so i will have an passenger read for me at wide open to determine if im in the proper range for wot rpm
