That isn’t even close to scale speed though. Shannons plane, they get the bow dry. It seems most owners have had less than desirable results with the scale jetdrives on these though, it just seems to be one of these things.
It’s a lovely model, really well done. Congrats on a great build and something to be proud of 
Just revisited this thread to question how fast is fast enough? I think I'm over gunning it here and using slower motors too.
Also sailing in high wind with no shortage of grunt. Another builder has very recently questioned the necessity of trim tabs. I can assure doubters that this would be stood on end without them fully deployed at speed.
