I did play with the trim to see if it would improve any. Trimming down gave me a better hole shot but the prop would spin at a lower RPM, like around 4k the prop starts slipping and the rpms jump. Trimming up have me better top end but it felt more sluggish off the line.

It could be that the motor was mounted too high. Did you call the dealer where you bought it?

Swinging by there later on in the day. Didn't get any pictures of how the rear sits in the water or any pictures of the rear at all.

Going to suck to have to drive all the way out to the lake house, grab the trailer, drive out to the launch, pull the boat out, then drive all the way out to the dealer. Reason to buy a new one was to put the boat in the water and just ride it and not ever have to pull it out. Guess that ain't happening.
