96 Force 75 hp - engine idles along fine but<br />when accelerated the engine revs loudly but<br />doesn't seem to 'catch'. Prop has been rehubbed<br />(someone suggested that) but that didn't help.<br />Any help would be appreciated.

I didn't notice anything..what may<br />that indicate?

Is your AV plate even with the bottom of the boat? <br /><br />You might be ventilating the prop by not having it deep enough, or you may have a mismatch between transom and shaft length.<br /><br />Good luck. :)
