      I think it's good that you have to work out the bugs with the strut now you know what happens when it is at each position!

                  I bet that was maybe touching 35-40 in some spots!

                      Hah i was hoping for a litle faster but in real life, its fast... Almost too fast too soon. Once i get it on a big lake and can see how it will go when i open her up for a bit

                        Put the boat on a table with the bottom of the strut on the table too.Loosen the strut bolt slightly and push the hull flat on the table.The strut should also be flat on the table.Tighten the strut like that.

                          You can find the manuals online there mason and that should help you get the settings reversed

                          I will look here in a minute and see if I can find the link and post it for you.
