[QUOTE="JT12, post: 264773, member: 8870"] I've got new 5hp B&S on a 12' Alum Tracker. I'm having trouble getting it to plane even if i distribute the weight around. It's my first boat & not sure if I need to adjust the angle of the motor, get a new prop, or put on a hydrofoil (which seems a bit much on just a 5hp). How fast should it go with 300lbs for myself and all my gear? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
