[QUOTE="stone4140, post: 109978, member: 916"] Ya thats a good thought on the hydrofoil. It didn't seem to make things better or worse. When giving throttle the bow will go up but it will not plane. Then when I back off the bow will dig in and I get a little wet. Before the mod and the extra bow weight I could plane 3 guys off fairly easy now it doesn't with two. I think Ill take the hydrofoil off and try putting the batteries in the stern area and give it a try. If its better Ill have to rewire the boat this winter. I was hoping not to have to run heavy gauge wire all that way But I would rather be able to plane nicely. [/QUOTE]
