hey guys...check this out...
been thinking ive had something in my motor that needed adjusting to help me get out of the whole....so far my hired Mercury Mechanic is baffled...
says he's done a few small adjustments, but nothing that he expects to make any difference for my problem...
PROBLEM:
can't hardly get boat out of whole even with TRIM tabs DOWN...but, top end runs FREAKIN amazing....
PROPS tried:
25 trophy- comes out of whole "Fair" (with trim tabs down), almost not at all with trim tabs up...6,000 PLUS rpms at 80mph (gps) with REV limiter beeping
27 trophy- (worked over and over again probally more like a 26) Barely comes out of whole with trim tabs down, and WONT with them up...5800 rpms at 78 mph WOT...
26 FURY- (brand new out of box) barely can get out of whole with trim tabs down, not at all with tabs up....82.3 GPS @ 5750 rpms....WOW....loving it from mid range ON>>>>>>

I still dont think its a prop issue as much as a set up issue....my dads got a 01 INTIMIDATOR 2000 with a 225 EFI, and no matter what prop, can ALWAYS use trim tabs if neccessary to get out of whole in a quick manner...

only difference in boats is length and i've got a 10" bobs hydraulic where his is a 4 inch bobs hydraulic...
any other ideas...or anyone else experienced similiar issues...
didn't have any problem on my 209 with same motor...
