By the way, I worked on pushing down the bows and found that I did point about 10 to 15 degrees higher, works great. Had to watch the rudder cavitation though. You guys are right on the money
I had to add longer rudders to fix the rudder problem. After carefully watching the process I'd call it "aspiration", not cavitation. I could watch air channel down the leading edge of the blade and exit about 4 inches up from the tip. The blade "stalled" suddenly and the boat would round up with no available steerage. Going to longer blades was an instantaneous cure. Fortunately, this was on a Mystere 5.0 and blades from a Mystere 6.0 fit perfectly. Here's a photo (I hope)
