Like that in the water shot  Way to get it done!
Forgot to ask...Setback and motor height from keel to anti-cav? After all this is a VDH boat from the waterline down.

John - Setback is 28" and motor height from keel to cavitation plate is 2" . . . but the motor needs to come up 1 or 2 holes b/c it's making the telltale spray . . . and the cavitation plate is buried when it's up on a plane. Motor turns 5800 rpm with 2 people and a full tank. Top end is 35 mph . . . so far which is slow, but fuel economy is awesome
Thanks again for the boat . . . I have a piece of fuel hose (stiff as a baseball bat) for the old owner.

Measured transom deadrise on this boat and it's the same as the 23 . . . just 8" wider.
