Hi, Sam - Last fall I had my transom redone with a 25 inch height, and wished it had been done to 26 or 27 inches, so the motor has more adjustment up. I have a 25 inch Johnson 115hp on it, and the best advice from the site was to start the motor mounted with the AV plate at 1.5 inches above the keel. Right now mine is at about 1 inch up and will be adjusting it up one more hole (3/4 inch) in the near future.
I would be happy to measure my notch for you this weekend. What are you planning on for the splashwell configuration?
My boat is a 1972 Seafari 20.
John
