Default Transom angle on Tsunami / Scepter i/o ?

Anyone know what the transom tilt angle is on the 23
Tsunami/Scepter I/O models?.
I quickly put the mitre gauge from my table saw on it,and it looks like it's just about 15 degrees.
Not sure how accurate that is,but i need it for the X dimension for the outdrive cutout,and mounting holes.
Thanks.

John,

I did this over a year ago and came up with 13.5

You can do this with a square and straight edge. See this example: transom angle

Officially, according to a a factory rep, the angle is 14 degrees, and I was once told by by this same factory rep (back in in '83 or '84) that this was true for all SeaCrafts except some of the inboard 27's made in the early 80's, which had a transom angle of only 12 degrees.
