I noticed that a lot of you have opted to raise your transom to 25'. Can you tell me why and what advantages there are. Also how much wood is there connecting the transom and stringers? Reading through the post I'm under the impression that the stringers are wood free and foam filled. Is that correct? Also what is the max horse power I can safety hang on the the back of my 20' CC? Thanks.

Do you think the extra five inches the motor is up would cause the boat to sit even lower in the water and cause more problems with the scuppers?

There are only a few things(Very Few & their outweighed by the Greats) anyone can say a bad thing about seacrafts.One of them is Drainage/Scuppers.You'll find all kinds of post on any fix,complaint,ideas etc.Take a Day to reveiw the archives.Thats what makes this site so "Great" is all the "ADVICE" .I just re-did mine ,just removed the ss scuppers & added the ball scuppers.She doesn't sit in the water,but on a trailer.Hope this helps Her.I always kept them plugged before.
