I have a 04 triton tr 186 with a 04 optimax and 24 pitch tempest and one plug with a big hole. First thing in the morning it will get on plane alright with no water in love wells but with water in the live wells it is terrible and when the water heats up it won’t get on plane at all. The top end with no water first thing in the morning is around 52 running about 4750 rpms but when water heats up I’m lucky to get 4300 hundred running around 46. I have no idea what it could be I have tried a 17 pitch 4 blade that a buddy owns but hole shot was decent and top end was 40 with 4000 rms if I was lucky. Boat runs perfect cranks up first time and idles normal. When we first got boat around 3 years ago had 3 plugs and would do the same thing i just had no idea because it is the first boat I have owned.
