As for how far up do I trim it,I really think every boat has it's own "sweet spot".It took me a while to learn where mine likes to be.After I come out of the hole and get on plane I trim all the way up which is about 1/2 of the guage.Once there I just qlick it down just a tad and I can feel the prop BITE and the rpm's go to 5150 and the boat just cruises along.

28 too big
I'm thinking a 28 may be too big too.Would take longer out of the hole and on plane.Heck,a good marina will let you test props at no charge if brought back in good conditon.

I dont want to sell it.
I need to step up and buy a new house while the market is soft here in florida.
As most of you know I had a stupid b$%^ hit me on my motorcycle in march that had me in a wheel chair for several months and multiple surgeries.
That has depleted a large portion of my savings.
I have the reserve set high enough to not make it a dumb transaction however it still is not an easy deal ...
