Yea SOLO Straightaway running is one thing ... Sanctioned multi boat events be them Oval course racing or SAW are an exercise in adaption to conditions at hand.I think the other thing is making a determination of when the water is too rough. I have an app called windy.com and check wind speeds before I bother to charge up LiPos.
This is why many as they advance in the R/C boat hobby keep notes on props and set up specs for varied water & wind conditions etc ....
Your rabbit hole will continue to deepen !!!!
I know this picture was shared previous ... tho making note that the "TRIM" has been so finely tweaked that boat hull while running on the surface, at times Airs Out and it needs to be able to fly LEVEL before gravity has it settle back down. Key is having Prop lift enough to keep transom up and bow biased down tho not so must as to cause a high speed STUFF !!! Prop ideally never blows out losing bite and creating lift !!! For when it does the hull will KITE and blow off the water
