Huh I was thinking that if you were weighted down it might help keep you from dunking the bow. Where do you have it set now? Horizontal? That is a lot of plans there buddy... If your engine runs nice and strong, finish the interior and see if you get any bites on craigslist.
I usually have mine set an inch down from its "relaxed" position. I get a huge trough and still my best top speed without it porpoising. But my hull has that really aggressive deep forward keel, the midship step, and the shallow deadrise aft... the wake, ski, and crossover hulls all act differently. I wish you lived closer... I would love to help you with your boat!
My 89 Comp. Has a warmed-up 351.
Age-
that is a great looking comp. i am usually partial to the open bow but, this has me intrigued!
1986 Sunsport when I picked her up at the end of last summer.
No action shots yet, but we'll get there this summer.

Thanks, Ngavdba. It hasn't been wetsanded since I've owned it. A friend of mine's dad owns a carwash, and I just used his boat wax and a pneumatic buffer, before taking the last pictures. She shines really well, when taken care of.
The interior was redone about 3 years ago. The vinyl still feels and looks new, especially with all the supplies the guys at the wash give me.
I have a set of brand new decals from Supra (same kind; the old ones are just beaten up a bit) to go on there. I hope that by the end of the summer I also find time to re-oil all of the teak.
here's a few pics. They're a bit old and with the old tow vehicle but the boat still looks the same.
