Default Re: What Happens?

No cavitation, but lots of drag. Your performance will suffer as well with the lower unit that far in the water.

Just something to think about - get a manual jack plate ($300-400) with 5" of vertical travel and you should be all set. You really want the engine's trim tab to be within 1" of the boat's keel for optimal performance and fuel economy.
