OOps, guess this should be in General Outboard Questions.<br /><br />Just some questions from a new 'toon driver. <br /><br />What is the correct depth that should be set for the prop on a pontoon. It seems mine is way too deep. It is my understanding that the cavitation plate should be just under the surface of the water. Believe mine is about five inches or more below the surface with no load in the boat. <br /><br />Wouldn't it be feasible to have the bottom of the prop just above the bottom of the pontoons. This would also help to protect the prop from hitting in shallow water as the pontoons would hit first. <br /><br />What am I missing here?
