[QUOTE="reedjj, post: 219278, member: 4585"] My 1542 had a 15" transom. With a full fuel tank and 2 people sitting in the seats the rear of the boat was drafting 6-7 inches. Almost half the height of the transom was submerged. I was a little concerned about it at first. But after going from full throttle to full stop and no water coming over the top. I was confident. I think I even posted my concern over it on here. I remember being told. " hey its a jon boat its going to sit low, get used to it". I did and it was never a problem. Not even when negatiating wakes of 40' powerboats running at close to 60mph! [/QUOTE]
