    Hello all. I am running a 200 Verado on my tiller. Looking to see what others have their motor height/hole mounted at? And performance numbers with what prop they are running. Thanks

    Raised my motor to 2nd hole from the bottom. Gained 4 MPH and am now up to 6100 rpms from 5600. Am super happy with the height Cavitation plate is abou 3/4″ above bottom of hull

    You can run up to 6400 rpm correct? You can get the prop you have recupped for less than 100 dollars

    So it does not cavitate or wash out when cornering? I have never run an outboard that high except in racing application.

    No blow out or cavitation. Motor runs as expected
