    Vince, you have a hydraulic jackplate, correct?

    If so, try the motor higher; many think that you need to lower the motor and tuck it all the way under; that's not always going to give you the best holeshot. Sometimes a higher setting will let the prop spin up faster and give you a better holeshot.
