hold on a moment
the centre of bullet is 2 inch below the bottom of the boat, yeah i get that bit.
Now my gearcase is 4 inch and bit, so if i ran with the centre of bullet 2 inch below then the top of
the bullet would be level with the water when on plane.
Now the lowest hole on my engine is around 3.5 inch above the centre of bullet.
in the pic below i have put a red line on the centre of the bullet.
the yellow line is what sharpeye mike must have as a minimum water line.
the green line is roughly where my water line is when on full throttle with the engine raised up to
top bolt hole at the moment.
this is why i am saying there is no way i can raise 5 inches and still get water, it would be impossible without the
engine going back a long way.
At full throttle about the last foot of the boat is all thats in the water and its very skittish and light on the arse end
when trying to keep it in a straight line..
