Trim?

I have a bit of a problem. i took my boat out for a test run the other day./

It is a zodiac 380 rib with a 1980 20hp 2 stroke. When trimed at 2nd hole i get alot of splashing over the transome. When trim at 3rd hole it is purfect with one person no splashing but with 2 people i start to porpose but still no splashing.

i thought about maybe rasing the motor an 1in or 2in it seams pritty low in the water. i might try out one of thoes hydrofoils on the motor.

Search for 'Locozodiac' posts and topics, he's the master of 'engine height splashing transom efficiency' topics. Lots of useful set up tips and pics to get it sorted. :thumbs":
