I have a 2004 xpress h51db with a 2003 mercury 90hp 2 stroke, 6 inch jackplate, 22p powertech prop, prop shaft is 5” below pad. The day I got it I ran 51 mph (gps) with one battery in the rear. I added two more batteries for trolling motor and now cannot get on pad anymore. New speed is 43 mph (gps). To get back on pad do I need to remove the batteries due to too much weight? Or distribute the weight somehow.
