However I fill the livewells and added my partner and I cannot get on plane unless he moves up on the front deck.

I currently have a Yamaha 25 pitch Vmax SHO 3 blade that runs 71 mph but I have trouble getting out of the hole with it.

I ran a 25 pitch V Max SHO stainless 3 Blade yesterday and it runs ok still slow to get out of the hole but I’ve been told that the Yamaha 175 V Max 4 stroke is slow out of the hole.

Any suggestions on weather to raise engine or lower it or change to different prop?
