Steve,
Don't mean to hijack the thread but you brought up a point I'm curious about. In reference to increasing venting of the prop to improve hole shot, what effect does that have on rpm's and holding the bow up to prevent the rise and fall or bouncing you refer to? We have pretty good hole shot right now but occasionally experience bouncing. Part of this I'm guessing is because we tend to try to cruise at 3800-4000 rpms which is about 34-35 mph. We have a 690 vs and 150 Merc EFI, with a Hi 5 prop. Would venting make the bouncing better or worse? Thanks
