The basic starting point is three degres above keel.You kinda have to mess with it to get the best riding spot without porpus.
yea my boat porpuses alot at low speed. i think it should do that for speed but some times at top end it does it. i dont like that it gets scary i'm afraid it will fly over backwards.

Do you have a place diverter..If not I recomend one. What kind of boat do you have a porpous can cause you to loose speed The idea as I'm sure you know is to get the boat as much out of the water as possible without jumping out thus causing cavitation.
rstover1, I have 19ft picklefork with no placediverter. I'm going to get one this winter it will at least stop porpus at crusing speed.thanx craig
smoking,this rideplate issue has been addressed before,hence the lack of replies.Remove the wedge.Basically you have between 0-4 degrees to play with the rideplate,and a placediverter to find the right attitude of your ride.
