Haha. That's what I was thinking. I'm gonna have to out a 2 ton floor jack and use it like a jack plate. Deep drives to get on plane then jack em up for less drag!! Haha

Cool

You're not going to break the record that way, with an odd number of motors the motors are going to crab from the torque steer and you'll lose all the speed. Unless you change out the prop drive on the center motor for a Jet Pump.

No suggestions. You appear to have all under control.
