Hey, I know this feeling. Like you're rowing with carpet on the exterior bottom of your boat.

Dump a bucket of water in your boat. Now move your front seat forward or back to get the feeling of 'slickness'. You know the proper feeling, because you knew when you DIDN'T have it.

Once the boat is trimmed how you like it, take a good look at the water on the floor of your boat.
Now everytime you launch, dump a bucket of water in the boat, get everyting in it's place, including your passengers. Now move the front seat until the water is where you know it ought to be.

Your boat is trimmed. And if you consistently fish with the same people, you won't have to re-do it.

Hope this helps. Good luck.
