Bobs nose cone and low water pickup
I am interested in purchasing a bobs nose cone but I am concerned with the assembly! My biggest concern is getting the cone on perfectly straight! Who has put a nose cone on and can you send me some pictures and help me out! Is this task extremely hard or is it fairly easy?
A Nose Cone Will Slow You Down
A low water nose cone allows you to get water pressure when you raise the motor up. A gearcase with side water pick ups, can be raised about 2-3 inches higher with a low water pick up. Then, you can put a "BIG ***" wheel on your boat and go like "Jack the Bear". I you just put a cone one you will go slower as you have added drag. And if you jut raise the motor without changing the prop, you may also go slower as your small propeller will slip more than it does now.
