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

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 Antenna is for the Garmin 2010 Chartplotter....
Gauges with red bezels are boost and fuel psi.
Dash was a budget makeover. Old dash was white, faded yellow, along with the old gauges. Throttles were peeling, etc. Heck its a 1990.
