Not 100% certain if I am running 19x19 or 19x21 props, either way, I generally need to run at least one medium sized bag to get down to 2.2 at minimum rpm.

Yes, the platform is definitely set too low to the waterline from the factory. We have always joked about no need to shower trolling in a following sea.
