Just sounds like it's turning too many rpm's. What size prop are most of you running on the 15ft. sport with a 2000 year model 70hp. Johnson.

The SST is not really a modern design, though. When I had that motor on my 15 I ran a Stiletto Advantage 13.25 x 17. It was perfect for the setup - better grip in all conditions, and lets you raise the motor to improve performance.
