Took Old School out this afternoon for the first time, motor runs like a top, the wind was horrible and all the boats were coming in as I went out. Bad chop, big swells. Boat did good a lot drier than my old CC. Of course I did not bring the enclosure because I wanted to check RPM's after my tune up. In the wind and chop the motor got to 5300 RPM. There definetly is a problem though, if you try to trim the motor up at all in a good chop and get going about 2o mph the prop ventilates as it goes over the swells. Could not trim or do anything about it. It is a 115 Johnson and weighs very little and the Armstrong bracket is mounted at least 2 inches to high from what I can see. I have one more hole I can go down on the mount but don't believe it will be enough. I either need a much heavier motor or some other way of lowering the motor on the bracket anyone got any ideas ???
