another one breakes 80
first of all i want to thank jerry and nils for my rude charger it gave the ski what it was lacking a whole lot of power just got the rxp out on the water today air 91 and humid water 77 first run 6 bars of fuel trim up sitting up 8500 hit 79.23 started to porpoise did another run 5 bars r's of fuel r's settled down to 8450 trim 2 notces below half and working my way up to 2-3 bars above half but i cant stay there long untill it starts to porpoise hit 80.36 once the fuel got down futher i couldnt keep it from porpoiseing so i put another 5 gal in went back out and rolled off a 80.44, 80.46, 80.41 all with at least 6 bars of fuel. this ski has a lot more in her never could get a 2 bar run or get back on the seat. i've got some problems with porpoiseing i think if i can get that fix i can get the r's up just by freeing up the ski with trim might need to put a 82 ring in since the heat went up. any body else haveing this problem with porpoiseing

I too have a porpoising problem on my turbo ski running similar speeds. The best I've done is to start out a few clicks below neutral. When the rev's flatline, I trim it up to 2 above neutral, scoot back on the seat (forget about superman on this bucking bronco!), and hope for the best.
I wish I could figure out how to make it more stable. I may try some variation of skegs on it and see what happens. I'm not running a wedge even.
