that pic has always kinda made me wonder......the boat is aired out pretty well and the mota looks to have a negative trim to it, or at the bare min. no trim:eyecrazy:

Ross, a properly set up outboard should run with zero trim. When the prop is running true in the water it is the most efficient.

I think that boat was built light. It does run good with little power. :thumb:
 
i understand what you are saying, look at your old predictor and jeffs 'flite in the backround compared to that boat......kinda funny. i know my flite would be aired out and the motor would be level to the water, but for some reason to me that looks like it has negative trim(compared to the water).

The "magic" of the Saginaw River......all the dead bodies give better traction, reduce slip, and increase buoyancy! Kinda like salt water:cheers:
