Well she's in the water and every time I give it a good amount of throttle it goes all over the place. It feels like the back of the boat is lifting. I'm sure this has more to do with the props than the drives. I do have a call into Rik and Hering to try and find out what is going on.

It's cause the back of the boat is trying to take off like the space shuttle with 2100hp worth of exhaust pointing straight at the water.

That’s funny
I see another 50' Hustler listed for sale with Trips and ADS-8s and the photo shows he is running a 5 blade on the out sides and a 4 blade on the center.
Not sure if this is the case but I have a call into him also.

Hey Rik,
The steering wheel is not moving but feels like the bow is steering. So yes the boat moves.

I will have to work on getting that. I did just go for another run and I noticed if I trim up to 2 on my gauge it really calms down. but it’s all rooster tail and no speed. 0 would be in line with the hull at the transom.

Rik what are your thoughts about adding weights to the transom? I have no other way of shifting weight and now that you mention LCG I’m almost sure I need more transom weight on this Monster.
