    A lot of time, thinking, and customization went into converting to 15" motors.
    Big thanks to Mario at IPM for the great ideas and work

    Your more than likely going to have to machine down the jackplates. My 28 came w/ 15" 280's and the CMC Jackplates were machined down a lot especially the side that had the side rams. Are you doing side mounted rams or front mounted? There probably won't be clearance with the front mounted rams. Boat looks awesome!

    Front mount rams are not an option with stock transom unless you have 8" plates. Transom pickups and 15.5" 36 herrings you should only have to go down 2.5" from where 280s were

    I thought it was about 1" when I swapped your 21 to a merc clamp I'll measure it. Maybe we should have taken that ~1" off the top of the swivel tube instead of the bottom to drop the arm down.

    Looks like with 15" mids there is not much room to trim the engines up very far.
