[QUOTE="czuniga, post: 431568, member: 7643"] Hello, have a aluminum jon boat ( 2072 ) recently installed tunnel. I installed an cmc jackplate and cavitation plate. Aligned cavitation plate to about 1.5 inches above tunnel. Tested it and I get a lot of water overboard while boat gets on plane. Once on plane problems goes away and cavitation plate is totally visible. Once I slow down and start coming off plane splash starts again. Does this mean I can raise my outboard some more. I m just afraid if i go any higher I might loose water pressure. It did not seem to cavitate of slip. Wondering of height on similar setups. [/QUOTE]
