[QUOTE="fowlmood77, post: 21074, member: 269"] Finally a site for jon boats and other metal boats What took so long for me to find it? lol I saw a sticker on a guys boat on another site, now I guess I gotta get one to elp advertise. Now to my question. I have a 16' jon that "plows" through the water. I get sprayed from the front so I am thinking of a few "modifications". First off I am going to move the TM battery tot he back. That is all the weight that I can shift. The other thing I am thinking of is to raise the motor with a homemade jack plate like pictured below. I have a long shaft 20 hp and I think it could stand being raised about 3 inches. Anyone on here tried it? Results? Anything else I could do except keep wishing the boat was a mod v hull? [/QUOTE]
