Default Re: Motor height on bracket

bushwacker,
Thanks for the response.
When I initially set it up, I had it 2.5" higher than where it was when on the transom, setback is 30". It looked to me like it could easily go up 2" and still keep the cavitation plate wet. I raised it up 3 holes, and will test and see. Luckily, I started in the top hole, so I have a lot of room to move up if needed.

At rest, where is the waterline in reference to the top of the bracket? Mine is about 3" above the water line, about 1.5" between the bottom of the bracket and the waterline.
I mounted it that way because that was where Armstrong said too.
