Ok...for all of you salty dawgs who have experience with Cats which have twins with high X's....whats your sequence to get 'em flopped over? My current boat (and 4th Cat) is a 28 Speedster with twins, XR/SSM 1.35 drives with -2 shorty (and now 1/2 spacers) running 34 labbed Max 5's. Also has a center tab. It's been an adventure learning how to coax it on plane. I'm about 80% successful now but if you miss the cue's you are toast...pray nobody is paying attention and start over. I've tried the "turn the wheel to the right, back and forth" deal once the nose lifts to move some air to the props, it can help but it's finicky and timing has to be spot on. PS...it takes a few seconds at 1/2 throttle to get it to the point where the props are about to break loose. If you're not ready when they break....it's 4K RPM and a class B shit-show going on. That said when you get it all just right it's like an Old Milwaukie beer commercial..."Doesn't get any better than that".
