Tabs down, trim down, 4k unanswered RPMs until one hooksup, a few seconds later the other hooksup and away you go! You'll finally figure out exactly what RPM they like to launch at in your boat. After that it's almost as fast as a sterndrive (almost!)
I didn't ask that question years and years ago when I first bought mine. Took me over an hour before I threw my pride aside and called the guy!

Are the oil cooler mounts done with a 3d printer if so are they plastic?
Do you have the capability to turn the props in instead of out?
Getting on plain when your drives are to high like i ran into you may want to try using your own wake to help push you up. Rev the engines say to 10 knots back off the throttles until your wake starts to lift the transom and theget into the throttles again.
It will pop up on plain. I would assume it would not be any different with kaama's then bravo"s. Kind like surfing would be the easiest way to put it.
