    Stainless Props on small motors - good, bad, ugly?

    The really nice part about stainless is the ability to adjust pitch up or down . so if you find a prop that's used it can be pitched to hit your sweet spot in rpms. where I fish , in the marshes of sw Louisiana . stainless is the norm cause alum wears and is a lot softer , easier to bend or...

    Jackplate adjustment

    i'd start with the cav plate even with the bottom . If you are running an aluminum prop there isn't much you can do to it, in my opinion the alum prop is a spare . The stainless has more versatility and performance options and easier to solve prop issues ,ie adding and subtracting pitch and...

    hand control tm

    I agree with the transom mount not holding up on the front . Pain to deploy if you move a lot , bow mount is a lot easier . I think If the motor head isn't laying horizontal it will beat the seals out ,a friend of mine trashed 2 motors with water in them , he's had better luck with a bow mount

    motor guide quick release mount

    Prop Tunnel Hull / Tilt Question

    a good start would put the prop shaft parallel to the hull surface . . its a real balancing act to get everything right . cav plate even or up a little from the bottom of the transom . the boat will show ya where it wants to run . use a mph app for your phone or gps and watch speed move...
