Hello there. I have a 1986 Invader with a 150 horse Evinrude. I took it out to the lake for the first time last week (I just traded it for my wave runners) and water started Gushing in the back of the boat (See pics) also there is a "V" Like spray of water coming from from this too. I have tried to trim it out and every thing and cant seem to get rid of it. ANY SUGGUESTIONS

A mentioned earlier, your engine is mounted far to deep, or you are running a 25" leg on a 20 " transom.
The anti cavitation/ventilation plate should be around 1'- 2" above bottom.
A pick showing the boat at land with engine installation might help better.

I thought it was supposed to be 1"-2" BELOW the bottom :confused:
