[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 453317, member: 432"] With the anti-cavitation plate being so low you are creating drag by the motor having to push the area above the anti-cavitation plate through the water which robs you of speed. If you raise the motor you may find more speed. Now on the other side, if the anti-cavitation plate is above the bottom of the boat the prop may not get a good bite in the water and rob you of speed also. [/QUOTE]
