Confused a little on motor height. I redid my transom (new wood, etc) and put the motor back at the original height. I'm thinking the motor is too low, causing my boat to run 22 mph no matter if its just me (220 lbs) or if i load the boat down with 3 of us thats almost 700 lbs.
should the straight edge be even with the edge the way its show in my pictures, or should i bring it up to be inline with the water intake? Ive played with the trim angles and noticed there wasnt a huge difference either way - less than 1 mph from trimmed down to full trimmed out. the boat runs well with all of the angles, except trimmed out completely, where you can actually feel the drag on turns. any suggestions? bring it up one hole maybe?
