20" transom options on a 20' boat

[lost2a6]

Here's my two cents worth. Don't do the bracket on that boat. I don't think that you can get away with the 20" engine on the 25" transom with the jack plate. What would happen is if you was even able to get the engine low enough to run right, then you wouldn't be able to trim it up. The front of the engine would hit the transom. I had a 20ft Sceptre with a 200 Yamaha and 20" transom. I didn't have any problems with water washing in the well, however I never really put a lot of weight in the boat either. If it were my boat, I would go with the 25" transom and the engine extension. Now if only I could get an extension.[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
