[QUOTE="whitedog59, post: 139007, member: 2646"] Raise the motor until the cav plate is 1" above the bottom. The cav plate should not run under water, it should just skim on the surface. Water running over the cav plate imparts a heck of a lot of drag. If your cav plate is 1" below the bottom, I'd wager the water you have a good bit of spray as the water is hitting the motor about 2-3" above the plate. [/QUOTE]
