no jackplate, was at a local dealer and not bps, yes I timed it, The dealer said the motor height was right. I have had rangers, tritons, and others and never had this problem. I appreciate all the replies but to me if the boat wont perform under nearly a full load then its not as advertised. When I hit the throttle the rpms go to 3,000 and stop there then slowly go up and at about 3800 or 4000 it seems take off into higher rpms and goes on plane. Dealer wants me to install a dolphin fin but I shouldn't have to he also says they have done all they can. Been talking to customer rep Jeff Gardner but he has offered little in solutions other then ok warranty work. Next time on the water will check to see where cavitation plate is running while on plane maybe I am getting air but it doesn't sound like it. Anyone have anymore ideas I would appreciate them. thanks, Steve

moved most of my gear front, engine is at its highest on the transome, went from 22pitch 3 blade to 21p 3 blade to a 21p four blade this has helped but not corrected the problem. Dealer tells me motor is OK. By myself and no water in the livewell still takes better than 10 seconds to plane, add 1 person and I'm back to over 30 seconds.

recently purchase a new 2014 nitro z6 with 115 hp pro xs. With a full load (gas, live full, 2 people, and tackle) the boat would not plane. After 5 weeks at dealer and 2 prop changes boat still takes 45 seconds to plane out with with a full load. Anyone one with these issues and/or corrections.
