27' Daytona new bottom.. trim???
 
For topend what have you guys found the boat likes over 115MPH? I know setup will change this but just looking to see what people are doing? Trim her up good then at 115MPH trim back in some or???? My Boat acts like it just likes trim trim..... But have not run her in a long pass to realy feel the boat. My river is to small she is still picking up speed at 120++ MPH have not hit the wall yet.

Thank you Skydog

I tend to trim up deliberate but in small increments with pauses in between. There are many factors that dictate how much I'll trim (ie wind direction, chop, etc...) I basically follow the small increment with pauses process (let the boat settle in) until the boat feels right and the attitude is comfortable (ie bow of the boat just below the horizon.) After some seat time you'll tend to be able to feel the boat and see how it handles best. I find myself spending more time worrying about how she feels than what my indicators say.

My 2 cents.
