I have a 1993 17' Tracker Nitro Bass boat with a 1993 115 HP Evenrude on the back.
When the live wells are full and I have two people (including myself) in the boat I can't get the boat up on plane. I have to have my passanger get up front until the boat comes out of of the hole.
Gets up on plane fine with the live wells empty.
Rather than trying a bunch of different props I was thinking about trying one of those hydrofoil stabilizers like the Sting Ray, SE Sport 300 and etc to give me that little bit of extra lift to get out of the hole and get on plane.
I'm kinda leery about drilling holes in my cavitatiuon plate but I have read were some folks have had the "no-drill" models fall off.
Anybody using one of these? Pros? Cons? Opinions?
Any help will be appreciated!
