I recently traded for the above mentioned boat. On the first trip out I was impressed with the power out of the hole but soon after hitting 25 mph + - the bow starts to bounce.
I suspect it is a trim problem.... but seeing no adjustments I am looking for info related to this problem.
The boat does have a plate under the Jet nozzle that is approximate 1/4 inch thick it has a 90* bend of about 1/4 inch ( for rigidity I assume)
On this plate the 90 degree angle is pointing upward.
The boat came with no owners manual or shop manual ( both of which I would like to have ) since I have only had the boat in the water one time I would like info from anyone having experience in this area. Trim tabs may be the option but I have never seen a Jazz with trim tabs before.
This is a 15' boat 1998 model 175 Mercury Sport with Jet drive.
