[QUOTE="caver101, post: 498092, member: 1995"] I have a 2000 Alumicraft 1860svCC welded hull. Currently running a (very heavy) 2022 115/80 merc jet on a homemade minimal setback jack plate. Setback is approx 3 inches. With the new 4 stoke I just cannot get rid of the spray (trying a homemade splash guard next, story for another thread). The old lightweight 115 johnson jet I had on it was setup perfect. Thinking about just rising the transom, but not seeing a lot of information out there on the best way to go about this process. I have welded on beavertail pods and to make matters worse I think the old wooden core in my transom is starting to get soft so I might was well replace it at the same time. Its going to be a big project, just need some advice on planning it out properly. Any help is appreciated and photos even better! Thank you. [/QUOTE]
