Default Re: Motor height on bracket

At rest, where is the waterline in reference to the top of the bracket?


I took some measurements after taking above photo. Top of bracket is about 6" above bottom of bootstripe, which appears to be right at the waterline. Bottom of swim platform is about 4" above waterline.

The Seamark/Hermco bracket does NOT come all the way down to bottom of hull, as shown in following photo. The bottom of the flotation tub is about 4" above bottom of hull at center and it's clear of the water when on plane, although it probably acts somewhat like a big trim tab when you're coming up on plane.
