Mine did the same thing.. THINK I figured it out. Take your prop off and make sure there is no grass- fishing line wrapped around the shaft. The smallest amount of grass will cause mine to blow out.
"If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles."

if your running a 24p trophy now, going to a 26p tempest is not the right move. at 1.5" below pad that's too high also. might wanna lower the engine tp 3" below. that will help the holeshot. would also help to know what the w.o.t. rpms are with your current prop. if it runs good on topend, then a prop seal ring will help the blowout problem.
come see me sometime, and i'll take a look at your setup.

I attached a hydrafoil to my outboard and it planes out great now. It gives the rear of the boat more lift and lowers the front.
