[QUOTE="AC2717, post: 474057, member: 14911"] Update from the weekend: motor was almost 3 inches below where it should have been. without it being on the trailer (on a lift in the water), a friend of mine and I were able to lift the motor up almost as far as it will go. It is not where it should be 100% for location but what a difference. I believe I can get it up one more spot without drilling holes (which I wont do), but we were a loss to get it to the next step (needed a third person) also might not have the ability to do that given the holes, and where the top clamp brackets are on the hull themselves), but I think it can be done. Best prop on there was the 9.9x9 3 blade, the 11 pitches were terrible performance. Nest step is to find a 8 pitch, and see what that does. also was toying with (if cant get the motor any higher) to remove the foil to create less drag if cannot get it to above the water line before throttling up. Thoughts?? [/QUOTE]
