Mike cut an ole Potter 23 down to 21 to meet the slip length restriction of his place in the Keys.
Cutting corners is not in his nature.

I agree with Brian in wanting a 30" leg. You may find your power head low in the water
when running around.

Twin 25`s are pretty much the same as a single 30 height wise.

Remember you are moving the engine back and down relative to the angle of attack.
