Try throwing a jack plate into the mix, and it gets REAL confusing getting the 3 of em set right for every condition. When I had my flats boat I would run teh jack plate up til it would lose water pressure, then drop it down an inch, trim it out till the engine would be just above level, and then stop the bounce with the tabs. O nan I/O though, be careful not to trim it to high if your trim limit switch isn't working. Alot of people bypass them because they fail often, but without them you can overtrim the drive and bind the u-joints.
