Would it be worth putting a tunnel tab in the middle as a trim tab?

Hardest thing is to get her on plane with the 28 pitch.

Mine is hard to get on plane because of the pitch,
I don't think mine would go on plane without the third motor.


But, almost time for the water test
Hard to get the best of both worlds,

PS: Watch your water pressure when your trying to get on plane. Once on plane, I have great water pressure.
