Default Porpoising... You guys weren't kidding!
So I took my GP760's twin out today.. (I got it from a friend who had two identicals) Holy Geez, you all were not joking about the porpoising. I guess when I get mine in the water, I will get the Riva rideplate, and intake grate.. Since I got it for free, I won't cry about spending a couple hundred dollars to keep it from doing that. My a$$ is killing me now!

Did you get the riva ride plate and grate? If so did it help. My GP 1200 is doing the same thing.

No, I haven't gotten to that yet. I finally got the thing running today.

Franku, Why did you put a riva plate on yours? Was it for porpoising? What do you think of it overall? I was thinking of ordering the plate and grate.
