I pulled the four 5/16 plugs and epoxied them as well as installing the ring.
tell me what you think.

Looks good, take it out and run it and lets see what you get.

Much more controlled takeoff sat at 3 grand while planing out still takes a bit but didn't have to have my passenger get in front. Full livewell, three batteries and over half tank of fuel and rear cooler full. Beats the heck out of taking my 660 prop off for a 200 dollar one. THanks for the help. I should be in good shape for the tourney next week.

You could also try some Nauticus SX Trim Tabs. It will help you plane faster, and when sized properly could also help your top end and fuel consumption. Depending on how your transom is shaped, I was ablle to moun mine such that they had some side to side pressure and helped steering and tracking a lot on my bow rider.

My boat has a recessed rear hull so I don't think I could get them to work but I appreciate it.
