Re: 20SF 130 or 150hpdi ?
My setup has mine at the top of the bronze at rest. I really don't have any of the problems with weight and drainage and height that so many speak of. My motors only 410ish lbs. But 30" back. She would dolphin a little under 3200 in some conditions especially light on fuel, but the motor was not at the right height and there are no tabs. I love the simplicity of this boat! So I put an original cheap Stingray fin on and changed the motor height and gained 2 knts up top and I can't tell you how quick she pops you up on plane and now I can't make it porpoise. I'd like to get a blown 25" 175 60deg. Johnson/Evinrude to redo, super light reliable motor or an older non o-ring Merc. but really I want the OMC.
