18 SeaCraft engine height

[Michael Vezzosi]

Hello all. Looking for starting height while mounting 2008 new in crate Suzuki 140 4S. 1995 OMC 150 was second hole from top but did not note how far A/V plate was above the keel. My brother is under the impression that the new engine is only 6 lbs heavier, which I have not confirmed yet.

1986 SeaCraft 18 25" transom. Both batteries under removable storage boxes at transom, and he is not interested in moving them under the small console. Uses ping pong type scuppers and is happy with performance.

Thanks. Vezo, Part II.
