[QUOTE="Stevenstout, post: 417244, member: 20442"] So here's an update on the build, I ditched the pods and made different mounts for the trim tabs. So far I've had it up to 39mph at fI'll throttle withe no porpoising. Which yes, is fast for a Jon boat, but with 120hp I think it should go much faster. Especially when I've seen some with 60hp motors going 35mph and 85hp motors going 55mph. I haven't had a while lot of time to mess with trim nozzle adjustment and trim tab adjustment because the river has been pretty high and swift but I can't see that getting much more mph out of it. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
