Default It’s about time

After being tied up for a while with work,life family I got her back on the water.I snapped a couple of pics of my motor at 2 different heights which one seems better to you guys couldn’t get any rpm numbers due to a bad ground connection that I think I tracked down!

Hey Rick. Couldn't be more interested in your results. I copied you and my 150 is sitting in a crate waiting. I built the transom up to 26.5" with the plan being to put AV plate 1.5" above keel. Where are you right now?

Default ETEC 150 AV plate on Seafari

I just raised my ETEC by about 3/4” from where i was (approx 1.5”) above keel.
I expect to redo my previous test points and comment on the results soon.
