    Replacing the transom on a 2002 lund fisherman with a 125 mercury motor. Currently the motor is mounted in the second hole down from the top. The owner says the boat when he trim up very little the motor seems to cavitate at wide open and says seems like the front of the boat is not comming up enough. Looking for suggestions to either mount the motor down one hole or maybe a 4 blade prop. Any suggestions much appreiciated.

    A jack plate would take care of that.

    Correct but jack plates are not very common on aluminum boats around the Midwest. The more I’m thinking I should just try dropping the motor one hole.
