just got back a little while ago, man what a good time. leagal chemistry i looked for you out there thought i saw you turned arround and chased this boat about 4 miles down by the dam asked if it was you and well it wasnt. he had the same paint job on his boat as yours. well i tried ;D had a great trip boat ran perfect though i could only get 56mph @4400 rpm. but i guess i can sacrafice some speed for reliability huh. anyways here are a few pics for you guys to enjoy. >:D

Cool pics... looks like you had a great time. If you're looking for more speed, now's when the gains are a little harder to get. What, if any, adjustments have you made to your ride plate? Put a couple more degrees advance in it and see how it responds. Do you have a loader and/or shoe on it?
It's a terrible disease that makes you go faster and faster.....

i was gonna ask you guys about the ride plate. it porposes alot even at high speed. as for a grate i need something because any small wake or if i get bouncin to much it unloads the pump.

I think I found my new desk top . It's the same dash as my Saguaro so it's almost like I'm there ;D :D

I can't really tell from your pics, since bringing the nozzle up will make porpoising worse. If you are properly trimmed and have a problem, check the angle on your plate. Although 4* is a common starting point, I run 2* with the E pump on my Advantage. Drop it a degree or so and check check if it's better. Sounds like you're trying to lift the bow without enough HP. Getting your tune optimized may help also.
As far as unloading, I would work with your plate BEFORE adding a loader. If adjusting it helps keep it loaded, then try a ski loader. It's a slow process, but remember to just make one change/adjustment at a time. If it gets worse, you'll know what did it and be able to go back to a previous setup.

I kept my eyes out, but never saw the one other jet on the lake (lol.) It looks like you may have been at 3 dunes from the pics above... I was there all day on Monday. I'll try to get some pics up when I get some time this evening.
Thanks for posting pics up... it was nice this weekend!
