Trimming for speed
 
1 Attachment(s)
Curious, where all you other guys trim to on the indicator for max speed?? My old heap likes lots of trim, usually run them out to ''6'' or so if the water's flat. Between 2-3 is about neutral ...Wish my indicators when further lol

That's funny, I recall saying that to myself a few times. 6 as well.

3 is pretty much neutrall for me, tabs are flat at 3 and the drive level too, seems like 5 1/2 to 6 are the limit to speed, then it starts slowing down.

7 1/2 for me. But can't be too rough or I need wings. :helmet: 4 is level.

Was just thinking about this last week and marked neutral on the indicators which is about halfway out.
I would trim all the way out and then bump them a few more times after that and it still picks up speed.
So i guess on my 42 it likes it full out.

The hawk with Bravos was also 5.5-6 for speed. After that just makes noise lol.

Every bump counts lol... I was running with a guy last summer and by the time we were finished I'm pretty sure I was at full trailer:lolhit:
