So, if I understand correctly, you're saying that the COG setting should be used to keep the bow up a tiny bit to reduce wetted hull area, while keeping less prop in the water, to minimize prop-induced bow lift while maximizing prop-induced stern lift. Sounds like a plan.
I raised the strut. There's about 3/16" of clearance still remaining between the prop and the strut frame, so it could still go higher if I wanted to.
Here's the boat sitting flat on the kitchen counter.
