Yes, hooked hulls can indeed ... but again, raise as suggested and give it a whirl. I don't think 3/4" is going to do it.On the hull I had, I had to add a 3/4" thick fully epoxied large piece to the rear of the hull that went higher than the transom, to the height of the block that raised it up and sat on the transom cap. I through-bolted the engine on once I was satisfied, as otherwise the motor is well up (but not off) the regular transom.Believe me, I've been boating for 50-years now on my own boats (my bros & I once owned/ran 14 rigs for a few seasons there) and we NEVER, ever had to mess with one like we did on this one ...
