[QUOTE="AppalachianAmerican, post: 391651, member: 17423"] My transom measured 15 inches, same as my outboard. However do to the angle of the transom, measuring straight down is only 12 inches. I plan on making a wooden shim to raise the motor 2 to 3 inches and see if that makes any difference before building a jack plate. A good friend of mine is giving the ole 9.5 a good tune up. Cleaning carb, checking compression, new plugs, checking fire, cleaning fuel filter, and changing lower gear oil. hopefully this all results in a good idle, and strong running outboard pushing my hull a good 12 to 15 mph [/QUOTE]
