Thanks for the help---Why a 30" bracket? Do I need it for the tilt or the added flotation. Due to the weight of my engine I would like my bow being stuck a little more, I can always trim up. I run offshore mostly and prefer not to pound. I have a fin on my mako which helps me from sliding on the corners. Don,t know if it would do much on the 23 as its a tank and takes a lot of push to getit moving. Once its on its feet it handles like a sports car.
