Location: north central wisconsin | Well, I(before reading VMS very informative post) decided to move the motor down two holes before changing props. It seems to give just slightly better hole shot, and porpoising was reduced quite a bit. She hummed along yesterday with two big dudes and all of our Musky gear at 38.1 top end. I think I can afford to lose a bit of top end. Brad, no not drag racing, but it is more important to get onto plane in 90% of the locations I fish, vs. top speed. I might just try a 16 pitch on the rig, then go from there. We used a comealong on the joists of the garage and moved the motor down no problem(leaving the bottom nuts on the fixed bolts).
I bought the motor from Mid state marine in Fremont and they've been very helpful thus far. They sell Skeeters and Yar-Craft and set them up a certain way.
Thanks again.
