Ok so i originally had a 20" shaft motor on my boat & the prop didnt sit below the bottom of the transom. I was told it should since its a 18ft bowrider & not a bassboat but when i would hammer down on the throttle the motor would rev up but barely move. I was told the prop was blowing out (cavitating) because it wasnt low enough so when i repowered the boat i got a 25" shaft motor which really gets the prop below the transom. Was that the right choice to make or was i way off to begin with?
