[QUOTE="tnriverluver, post: 317943, member: 9284"] Sounds to me like your props rubber hub is slipping and worn out, not a cavitation problem. The hubs will start to slip when you start applying max throttle. You can check for slippage by putting a mark on the prop and one one the shaft and take it for a spin. If those marks aren't lined up when you return you need a new prop or have the old prop re-hubbed. The cavitation plate can be up to an inch above the bottom of the transom and still work just fine.
