[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 478982, member: 12995"] Is the motor mounted to the transom by clamping it on or are there holes in the transom and bolts going through the motor mounting plate? My jet outboard is a 15" short shaft motor and I have it mounted at least 2" above the transom but it's bolted through the transom. If yours is bolted through the transom, you can raise it 1 hole at a time and test it out, that's what I ended up doing. I kept going up until I got spray back over the transom (that's a jet outboard issue) and performance slowed down. Then I went back down a hole and it's been there for years. [/QUOTE]
