I have a 1988 Javelin with a 150 Evinrude on it. The boat will perform fine with just me in it, but I put one or more people in it, sometimes it will start bouncing. Is it because it is trimmed up to far or something else? Thank you for any help.

usually trimed to far up. you have to adjust your load and your trim, move part of the load forward.

When ti starts bouncing, called porpoising, just trim it down a bit and it should stop.
