[QUOTE="reedjj, post: 189737, member: 4585"] You can use a jack plate to get your Cav plate even with or slightly above the bottom of the boat. That will help you to run shallower. I don't see how a fin will help you to run shallower. All I have ever heard they do is help you get on plane faster and eliminate porpoising at speed. They also slow you down slightly because of the added drag. I got one of the small jackplates from BPS and after re-measuring my motor set-up. The cavitation plate is almost 2 inches above the bottom of my boat. [/QUOTE]
