[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 213240, member: 1523"] I'd redrill the transom, sit the motor on a 2x2 or even a 2x4 to get enough height for the cav plate to be level with the bottom of the hull. The extra foot is just a big brake holding the boat back. Clean up the prop, same for the bottom of the hull, no dents or dings. Try to get the engine to rev higher. Prop slip angle is one of those mystical numbers that means nothing if the boat isn't set up right. Jamie [/QUOTE]
