Boat does'nt feel right

[RCaddict0]

OK, I just started into the water after alot of bashing in the dirt. I have owned a Hammer EP and Mini Vee along the way, but only ran them a few times. But I finally got my new ThunderTiger Outlaw JR(Brushless RTR deep v) in the lake for a test drive. I was fast once it got moving, but didnt feel the same as the other two Ive had. When I take off from a stop it feels hesatant Id guess youd say. It feels like its not getting off the start right. My other two mentioned above started off smooth and glided smoother. I really dont know how to really explain this. I hope Im making some sort of sense. It is all stock still. I did buy Grim Racer grease for the shaft and greased it. Thats about it. It was alot warmer the last time I ran boats. Does water temp. effect how the boat runs? It was summer last time. Waters blistering cold here in Ohio.

Well, I found the answer myself. Cold waters more dense.
Thanks Anyways

I don't think that would change much,
what are your temps like, from my interpretation the prop isn't biting enough, if the temps aren't too hot (5 second test) then possibly try lowering the strut

Cold weather in Cleveland, Ohio affects the Lipo batterys ability to produce power.
Warm the batterys up to 85 degrees f, put them in the boat and run them right away and you will see a big difference.

The strut isnt adjustable. Atleast from what I can see. But I think your right. Its like the prop isnt getting a bite on the water correctly. But its stock, wouldnt they find the wrong prop issue while in R&D? Youd think so. I bought a $23 Grim Racer prop as the stock is plastic. But I found after buying I need a new drive dog(I think thats what its called) and a longer shaft. But I need to pull it out and get it measurments. Havent been messing with it much. Its been col out and boating hasnt been on my list. lol.. Shoulda waited till spring to buy it. Its has a solid shaft now. Should I try to stich with a solid/strait one or look to a flex shaft? Is one better thaan the other?
