Spinning them in should create more bow lift which I know, and these boats dont really need that but if you trim the boat accordinally you really shouldnt have a problem??

Many people have contrary opinions.... these are the ones for whom the laws of physics have no meaning..... many of them are respected performance experts and racers...some are famous..... all are wrong.
If you spin in ...you might as well abandon birth control as well..... it makes about the same amount of sense.....both can produce startling results with long lasting impact. Of course the latter creates life...the former can end it.
