Thanks for the answer on the transom hight Flexpat. I think I'll go the 26". As for the glass layup, I was talking about doing the from the inside-side of the of bothe the inside skin and also on the outside skin but your point on where it is easier to work on from and get the best finish. And yes, the jack plate definatly acts as a lever. It had a static JackPlate on it for 10 years that was fully lifted the entirre time to compensate for the 25" shaft. That is part of my concern and the reason for my expediencey to address this so that leverage doesnt lead to some catastrophic failure where I become reliant upon mermaids..
