What's your prop look like? Any motor should be able to get up in that much water.

To much throttle. You are blowing water out. Start off slow and once moving throttle up.

I used to have the same setup & it would get up with 3 guys, dog, & full hunt load even in pure mud. Something isn't right somewhere
