2 engines, staggered.

A bit more bow weight might help get on the plane - but it has a 'kin huge bow tank already.

Prop availability is the problem - it has strange merc racing drives on it.

By "don't work", I mean they only work a very little bit, hence difficult to get on the plane. Once planing, they're very good.
When Ben throttles him, they usually manage to get there in the end....

No. You're trying to get the boat over the hump. Trimming up makes the "hump" bigger.

It's not the same at all. It "can" be the same, but it's much more complicated because a boat doesn't have gears or a clutch.

Some props, you're right, babying the boat onto the plane works, but...

I agree. Either sleeves on the current shafts (didn't you or someone already identify these exist?) to make em a "standard" size, or a set of custom made hubs. What I wasn't sure about was whether...

Cleavers are crap at gripping when not on the plane, they just cavitate like a bastard. They're a "super cavitating" designed to be surface piercing.

The "ideal" solution would be to move to some...
