Re: Gdlt help Have you tried shifting wieght around?
If alot of the wieght is on the rake, the transom, or one side the boat wont run its best. My hull is on plane at 13mph, but you won't get much more without a SD. _________________ CSM Custom 18x42 Battleship with a 36 PD beating you to the hole My Rig (Old Motor) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=45193 (New Motor) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=54733 Stumps Fear Me |
