Gee, you guys amaze me. I am from bass boat country. I know all about professional jack plates. I thought Mr. Asa just wanted something temporary to try to see if it would make a difference before he drilled holes in his transom and all of that. My way was a VERY down dirty and CHEAP way to do what he wanted to see if it would make a big change on his old 15hp motor. Those old bull nose gearcases won’t take much raising without a lot of prop work. I was just using a couple of c-clamps and pads to clamp to the transom and raise the motor for a quick run. Am I talking to the same people who won’t pay for carburetor packing? !!!
