After all the negatives, I add a positive.

A friend and I have owned pwc's and 3 boats together in the past. We now share a thundercat.
Works great for us, as I find when I go out boating, I would usually ask a mate to come along, so he...

That could the answer??

I thought you were running a Gemini zapcat. So maybe your generic cat has the top of the transom too high. You can't get your motor low enough?

As you say, the semi...

I see 54 knots most times I go out on my work boat (that's if the trim is working correctly for a change)
It's a little larger than the op's boat, but still a ribcraft. A 9.0m with twin df300's!!...

Zapcats generally work very well with semi cleaver props, as when on the plane approaching top speed, the prop will come out of the water.
That is with a 50hp motor. I suspect the 40 will not get to...

The courses are run in Cardiff...

Hey Roflhat,

nice surfcat. I used to sometimes drive a Gemini grx occasionally. Good fun.
Fast off the mark with the standard tohatsu prop.
