have you considered lifting the strut/stinger up a bit to get more of the prop out of the water? This will reduce the chine walk & let the engine rev a bit easier providing a faster top speed.

hi dicko. when you speek of moving the stinger up do you meen on the transom up and not the attack angle of the stinger. if so i will have to cut slots on the stinger to allow some up and down movement. thanks i will try it
