Looks great, get a torque tab welded on that skeg if you plan on running the motor higher. Keep us posted.

So I ended up having to raise the engine a lot, and it needs to go up still. I will need to remoove it from the plate and raise it there then start again.
Was running a 21p stock Johnson prop.....
1st run was 41 mph @ 4000rpm
2nd run raised the engine 1" and ran 45 mph @ 4400rpm
3rd run raised engine to upper limit of jack plate and ran 49mph@ 4900 rpm
4th run added 75lbs of top soil to the bow and ran 52 mph @5100 rpm
Water pressure still verry good and the boat is stable, so I think the 21p prop is in the ballpark just need one that will work better with this boat.
There is a bit more speed in there I'm sure, going to move the fuel tank forward and go from there.
I have some good pictures of the boat running but having trouble posting them at the moment......trying to figure it out now.

So I raised the motor up on the jack plate as high as it will go....for now.
In the process of moving the fuel load forward as well.
Could use some input on a better prop to try in the 21p range.
The last run I posted the prop shaft was 2 1/4" below the lowest part of the sponson. Now it is even.....the jack plate is 6" set back, I dont have low water pickup.
