my cav plate sits level with the surface at wot with no crazy spray but you cant compare a yamaha to a etec with bolt hole positions as every manufacturers leg lengths are slightly different
these are just a step up from a basic tinny thats why they are cheaper then a topender, the stacer has the better bottom shape.
the dealer i got mine through sells 4-5 renegades a week so it seems they know how to set them up and ive had none of the issues you have
it could also be the engine type and the etec just makes torque higher up the rev range then the 4 stroke
from racing 2 strokes thats what i have experienced
the 50hp yamahas a 4 cylinder 996cc at 110kg
the etec 50 is a 2 cyclinder 863cc at 113kg
your dealer should be fixing this, i can tow two adults in a tube at 3000 ish rpm and not drop off the plane
have never fish with 4 adults on it though
