My tubes are 0.20 bar/3psi, air floor 0.68 bar/10psi and the keel tube 0.20 bar/3psi, I have found this to be good with the being hot here, I do let some air out of all tubes and floor when sitting on the trailer to compensate for expansion.
Check all tubes for pressure and run the motor up before I take it out every time.
Glad to hear all went well with your trip out and you both enjoyed it.

Re: Elling KB350 Maiden Voyage & Flooding
I have stuffed mine into a wave once and filled the boat with water. We were in a big sea and doing 17mph jumping the waves. That shouldn't happen under the conditions you describe. As the others have said it is probably due to trim or weight distribution. On my Tohatsu 9.8 I have it set on the 3rd hole out. I also put the fuel and any other weight at the stern if there are 2 of us onboard.
