I had a 1998 27 fever with a hp500 carb and a b&m 250 pushin 3-4 lbs and it dynoed at 628 hp. I went from running a 26 four blade to a 30 four blade. Went from about 73mph to 84mph. The boat was always a little bit of a dog out of the hole but like he said above run the tabs down in and as soon as the nose comes down run the tabs back up.

Don't be afraid to use your tabs. I burry mine to get up on plane. They help drive your nose down and always be sure to tuck your drive all the way also. A 29 ft boat is a lot with only 1 drive so they can be a bit slow to plane compared to a smaller single engine boat.
