I've been living in the Seattle area for a few months now and have learned some northwest boating terms.......like "parka" and "winterize"

I only have that porpoise problem if the water is flat, a little chop and it smooths out. have you guys tried adding cup to the prop? Thats somtehing I was thinking might help, but not sure. I got a little more speed out of a stock 28 B1, But bottom and mid rpm was terrible. Does that even make sense.
Not messing with the box this year

28 would take away on bottom and mid range and pick up top end if you still get within 200 rpms of the 26, and the 25 is on flat water all the time.
