Agree. The size of the engine in relation to the size of the boat is a key factor. We have a 25 foot pontoon with an 80 hp motor (wish it were 115), so at speed I tilt the motor up as far as it will go (there is a limiter that only allows it to go so far when under load). Only when the water is really rough do we have cavitation problems. Of course the HP limitation doesn't lift the bow quite as far out of the water as I would like either, and when loaded the top speed dwindles noticeably.
