[QUOTE="dhoganjr, post: 364161, member: 12925"] On most applications, if you set it like the picture shows, you will loose a couple mph because water will go over the lip dragging and causing backspray. Most boats especially stern heavy ones will run at a slight to moderate angle on plane forcing more water over the lip. It is true all will run different. It works best to use a straight edge and line the bottom of the hull up with the front pin in the grates. Some can run higher and some lower, but that keeps the water under the lip and reduces the drag. [/QUOTE]
