I understand through several people on here that Hermco may have a bit of a solution on a new bracket design???? Something about the bracket floatation extending more outwards on the sides??? I will get with him about it and ask his opinions about what he thinks would be best as well.

I have also thought of maybe just adding the jack plate...???? Still all up in the air at the moment.

Bushwacker has already been talking to me back and forth about issues regarding a bracket and what not and giving me things to think about. I have also talked to Caymanboy about his most recent build and have asked his opinion on what if anything would he have done different regarding the bracket on his new boat.
Here is an 18 I just built and installed a Bob's 12 inch Jackplate on. Probably going with a 14 inch on the 19 redo.

Yea, I am thinking about using a shorter extension bracket and then using one of Bob's 6" jackplates. Would give me around 18" set-back instead of 24" if I can have a bracket made that size.

Somebody down there in Mijami loves their SC 20 SF's.

Personally the CG on that boat doesn't look right to me. Engine is trimmed down all the way, boat is still proposing.
Anyway, speed on these boats is like golf, pretty easy to get 110 par, or 50 kts, everything after that takes a shitload of work.
You can throw all the HP and (weight) you want on the back, everything over a 200hp 2 stk is gonna be tough to get MPH.
Once you throw a bracket on the back, bigger tank, bigger engine, it throws the CG off, no matter where you think it is.
Just sayin.
Annnd, if you where gonna put an F225 on a boat, why not a F300? Besides Insurance.
Anyway, nice rig, not overly fond of TUUCI's new "Shadeblade" design, looks tippy.
On mine, I can undo the straps and fish.
