[QUOTE="gajet31, post: 169666, member: 3832"] kthmarks, Thanks for that explanation. Due to some other recommendations, I am going to focus on the foot being the problem for now. If the dent repair and some other ideas do not pan out, I will be forced to assume it is the powerhead. Since I know very little about engines, I would have to take it to a mechanic for him to check out. If I do that, I will mention the power pack as a possible problem. S&M, I don't think it has anything to do with the trim. When I go to full throttle to get on plane, I have my motor trimmed all the way down to get the most suction of water. Once I get up on plane, I trim it up until it rides flat and drafts little water. Of course that was when it was working properly. I have tried throttling up with the motor in different positions, but it does not make a difference, the problem still occurs. Thanks everyone for the input, hopefully I can get it worked out and I'll relay the info so if anyone has any future problems it can help. [/QUOTE]
