I owuld think that lowing them 6 inches would really throw off the driveline angle. I would run the boat some more and make sure the weight is what caused the poitive result in the porpoise. For mine water conditions pay a huge factor. Flat water porpoise is very noticable for about a 15 mph range 75-90 maybe. Rough water very little porpoise and its for a small mph range.

Brian, how is the cabin of your boat designed?
is it have the storage on the one side with the bed running side to side?
The reason I ask is im having a huge problem with weight in the front end. I am breaking props left and right. I am on my third set this summer.
I think porpoise is causing this along with too much weight in the front?
any advice would be great!
on another note I put my boat along side my buddies 31 awesome 2001 and his sits 6" higher in the front end???

Yes this is how mine is set up.

Are you cracking the ears on the props?

Going to the the speedmaster on boxes with transmissions and the bigger motors/blowers dropped the back end of my boat about 1.5 inches based oin picures. This 1.5 in the read results in about 3 up in the front. This is all compared to bravos on the transom.
