Two questions for you all.
On an outboard with a jet prop, how do I determine the correct tilt? New to me boat and it appears to keep the prop in the water when running hard I need it in the last hole to keep it down in the water but it also seems the jet should run more in line with the bottom of the boat. This is how it is currently set up and seems to run best but I'm new to outboards in general and the jet prop is even more of a mystery to me. Thanks.

My next question is how do I secure the motor while travelling. The PM just strapped it over to one side but this has caused a wear mark where the jet prop rubs on the transom while traveling. I need to figure out how to fix this divot and want to avoid it in the future. Here's a link to a picture.
