27 inch should be good. I made my 1969 20ft to 26 3/4 inch from transom to keel and 27inch wide, after mounting the 140hp suzuki I could get it up to the last hole so I could have gone even higher and narrower it had plenty of space. I'm all about keeping that notch as small and high as possible for safety. It's looking really good keep the pictures coming!
