hi peeps
took my boat out on its maiden run lastnight runs ace.very fast but i didnt take my gps to check speeds
any way when i opened up the 40hp to full speed the water was comming over into the splash well.its not a problem as the drain holes were taking it away.
im thinking that a pair of doel fins will stop theis am i right or wont it help?
thanx peeps

It may be that the engine could do with being raised a touch so the cavitation plate is that bit higher.
We have a similar sort of problem but physically cant get our engine any higher without making a stand-off plate.
