[QUOTE="RaisedByWolves, post: 466857, member: 22989"] With the jackplate he added he needs the motor to be higher due to the rearward offset of the tilt/jack unit. Im currently going through this process with a similar setup and with the motor mounted directly to the transom Im probably going to wind up with the anti cav plate 1.5-2" above the bottom of the hull. And yes, Im also trying to get rid of the flying V rooster tail of shame. :oops: What kind of speed are you getting? ETA: I just looked at your pics again, you may have the jackplate mounted too low.
