Steering question on 1974 20ft CC SF

If you aren't using the bow to break waves in a headsea, the motor should be trimmed up. Look at the wake and trim up until the bubble or v is gone. Ideally the water will look like its coming off the bottom of the boat perfectly. Getting as much of the length of the boat out of the water at cruise is key. Saves gas, easier on motor, faster. I don't know if this is common knowledge or not as I see it waaaaay too often.
