Triton Chinewalk No
mater where I set my jackplate I still have chine walk, I have a triton
tr186 with a Yamaha 150 V Max, 6'' hijacker jackplate, Tempest pro 23
pitch prop. I get 60mph at 5500rpm my jackplate is 5 3/4'' above transom,
the boat is riding flat in the water, if I trim it all the way up it
starts to lean back (like it should) but starts chine walking again, I
have know idea how to get more top end without the chine walk, it feels
like the front is pushing down and not lifting high enough to get a smooth
ride, at 60 its fine, but I should get more top end I think. The
chine walk is the nut behind the wheel. You have to control the walk with
small steering corrections. The faster you go, the more you will need to
do this. Chine walk is the boat doing its job. Like riding a bike for the
first time, you will need to gain the skill to master it.
