[QUOTE="Mike D, post: 503033, member: 34460"] I have a 1436 with a 20 horsepower motor. The motor is/was too heavy for my boat and I have the same problem with the tiller being too close. I have pods riveted to the back of mine that add extra buoyancy. The pods make a huge difference. I am going to add a jack plate with 4" of setback to move the tiller back a little bit and to allow me to change the height of the motor relative to the cavitation plate and the hull of the boat (wouldn't be practical without the pods). My little boat is quick and corners hard and if I'm not carful it could easily eject a passenger. That said, its a blast to drive and can get into skinny, shallow water with ease. Examples of the type of pods I'm talking about are: [URL unfurl="true"]https://tbnation.net/products/float-pods[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.amazon.com/Beavertail-Float-Pods-Size-Small/dp/B00EJXT31Q/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=beavertail+pods&qid=1692975873&sr=8-1[/URL] [/QUOTE]
