Trim up till she breaks loose Do not ever use the trailer button to go past the trim limit switch when under way
machinist ,bore it deeper,ream it bigger, and lap it to a fine finish

I can NOT believe you still use the trailer button.....what gives? I disconnected mine in 1986.

do some classics have a seperate switch,,,trailer and trim??? i have been to the top of the full trim part of the switch and than bumped the second part of the switch once or twice to get a lil more rpm's and speed, the boat reacted to the drive being higher than the trim limit and took off thats the only way i can get a rooster tail and my top speed of 67 on gps 5400 rpm but,,, not for long, that was too fast for me

[ QUOTE=$originalposter]{$pagetext}[/QUOTE] Trimmed correctly you would be in the low 70's@5K with the boat feeling more like it was in control not so loose.

Phil, the boat is very much so in control,,, i trimmed it out the way you and fixx had told me to do it a while ago, as the speed and rpm's increase it can be trimmed more passed the limit switch, i will bump the switch a couple of times and than the rooster tail will rise up. I think it feels in control,,, its just that i am not very comfortable with the speed YET,,,
FISH HARD
I never shoot roosters as I have not gotten to that point yet but I do have the trailer button disconnected. Everything goes off the trim button like EVERY other manufacturer has done since day 1. Most of my boats will slip pretty good before they shoot a tail which although may look cool, means you are losing speed. I will try another high speed run this weekend and see how it goes. So far about 62 GPS with the 330 B1 and 23 mirage....no tail.

Put a surface drive on the boat
I've never looked behind while driving the blackhawk to see if it throws a rooster tail. They say it does!!!!!!!!!!!
To tell the truth younger it shoots a good rooster cause i saw it when i was behind.next year you will be seeing the back of mine pal.lol with the 31 and some new tricks should see some bigger#.along with a rooter.
We used to trim our old Century 228 way past the limit, it would slip hugely with the aluminum prop but it would throw a good tail. Did it for years with no trouble. I was 13.
