[QUOTE="Still Afloat, post: 497465, member: 32426"] Thanks for the input guys. Sorry for delayed reply, had to work on taxes. Fuzzy, I’ll try it trimmed out and see what happens. I can’t really raise the motor any higher at this point without buying or fabricating a Jack plate. JL, I wasn’t getting any porpoising or cavitation but, I find it interesting that you had the later. I've been reading up on stability and center of bouyancy. I really think the 196 pound motor and my 180 pounds in back is just too much to ask from a small boat. I’m considering pods and maybe even remote steer. What’s the consequence of going with too large of pods, provided that there is still adequate clearance for the pump? [/QUOTE]
