Excuse me.... but you would have to have one slick trim set up to be adjusting on a wave to wave basis.. considering your talking about high speed craft.
Dakers -Scarab (wellcraft)used to run an offshore powerboat school down in South FL. They may have some training materials for you. I believe the factory is in Sarasota. Give them a shot.
I am still gigling a little thinking about me trying to throttle adjust boat attitude for every wave at 100mph.
Test her till she flies straight and level and light the afterburners!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck

Sorry guys! Too much Poker Run prep last night and I forgot to look for the article. I promise I'll find it after the run and send it out on Monday.
Tejas Raz - I need a fax number. PM or e-mail me if you want.

Fax numbers no good
Well, guys. I tried. DAkers1, Cuda and MikeJ are the only ones whose fax went through. I'm going to find out if it's possible that this article isn't copyrighted any more. If not, I'll scan and post it. Otherwise, try to find someone who still has Boating from July 1987 or PM your mailing address.

If you do scan it, I'd appreciate a copy by email. [email protected]
Mike J - I caught that too! 80's flashback, huh.
