GV11. And so it begins...
Re: GV11. And so it begins...
Advice suggestions solicitation: Here is a pic of my transom and motor. As you can see, it is pretty straight up and that is is as far down as the motor will go. At this angle the boat and motor are nowhere near their potential. i'm new to the whole boat building scene, but i'm thinking a transom wedge might help. What do the experts think???? Is there another or better solution??

You are going to need a bunch of wedge in there. The motor needs to be able to tuck under at least a little when it is in the lowest setting. As it is now I bet the boat wants to point her nose to the sky when you give it the gas.

Got some studying to do... the motor is at an improper angle. Transom is thick , which is going to make it hard to get enough wedge to get the right angle. And it's about an inch and a half too high.
