    I just bought a 220DFS and I am having the same cavitation problem. I was face to face with my dealer principal last week and he acted "surprised". Yet, he is one of the largest dealers in the East... Ducky's boats. He then tried to sell me a new propeller. REALLY!!  How do I get this resolved?  Is the extension shaft a warranty resolution? They keep selling these boats like there is not a problem.

    What top end speed do you guys get? After installing full canopy (3 sections with two open) and the shaft extension, top end went from 27 mph to 20.2. Just me onboard and about 12 gallons gas.

    Ok thks - I see now you can get 3 tubes with 27" dia. now. I ordered my 2015 mid 2014 so they did not list all the options then. When it arrived the floor plan was even different than what I was shown. However I did like the layout better.
