Wondering if anyone has a carstens bluebill and is able to get it up on plane. It's rated for a 9hp. I have a 9.8 mercury thunderbolt 9.8, short shaft. It plows water pretty good, have tried redistributing weight.
I have a full sized starter batter which is in front of the front seat.
3 gallon tank that is just behind front seat
I put a tiller extension on but I don't like it too much, but when I shift my weight up it begins to make a difference.
Certainly does not pop up on plane or anything, more of a slow process to get up on plane and doing everything I can to keep it on plane.
Anyone have any ideas
Different prop maybe
something magic, like running a 15hp...anything.
Thanks in advance for the help.
