Re: motor mount height?????
Yes crisross,<br />With the Merc 85 mount it even with the bottom of the boat.Because of the length of<br />the boat you will need the leverage of the std instalation to trim the boat the way you like it to ride.A 20 degree stainless steel<br />prop of the pitch that lets the motor rev to<br />5500rpm will give you more trim control than<br />a 15 degree Aluminum prop of the same pitch.<br />If when you water test it and you get alot of side spray from the motor you may have to raise it up 1/2 inch so drill the holes at the top of the slots in the motor incase you have to do this.<br />...have fun...corm
