I can get the boat on plane at less than 20 mph but it is not easy. The main problem is the wake generated to get it on plane. The ideal way to get it on plane is get it out of the hole quickly, then ease of the throttle and trim it out. This generates the smallest wake. Conversely by easing it up on plane I do end up plowing thus pushing several tons of water that generate large wakes.
