Gentlemen
Great forum - wish I found it sooner. In the process of replacing the rotted wood transom, floor and seats. It has a 115 Merc with hydraulic tilt and trim. I'd like to increase the 55mph top end speed and if I understand correctly that extending the motor back further may achieve this - am I correct and if so how far back should I go? I'm also considering a hydraulic motor lift to allow a chopper prop to be used.
All response welcome
Thank you
