"Ok I finally got to take my boat out for the first trip ever this year. So I take the boat out and the nose of the boat rises up when I go at fast speeds. But not your regular up, it feels higher than most other boats. I know I can throw on some trim tabs, But i think there is a larger problem. Usually happens at higher speeds. i dont know where to start. I drive a aq130c 270, 1975 Thompson bowrider"

"Agree with the "Set Pin" location.... on most the center location seems to work best!

Stern heaviness will also cause this.
I'm not suggesting that you add more bow weight, but I am suggesting that you take what weight you can, and move it foward.
Loose items..... gear, coolers, and so on..... get it forward and then give a try.
No hull likes to be stern heavy!
