[QUOTE="Bowhunter1661, post: 395325, member: 9937"] I also have 4" of setback. Currently I believe I am in the neighborhood of 2" above the bottom of the hull. This gives me excellent performance out of my 1988 Johnson 25 and Lowe 1440. Right around 30-31 mph. My anti vent plate rides completely out of the water. However, with a light load I have to keep the motor tilted in the second pin to from the transom. Otherwise the prop ventilates bad out of the hole. Second pin, the boat takes off out of the hole great and never looses bite. Even when going over large waves. I'll try to snap a pic tonight for you. [/QUOTE]
