    Mirage Ski Racer Setup

    I've just bought a 2007 Mirage Ski Racer without an engine. Before I go buy one I wanted to know what shaft lenght works best on these boats. It has a 9" Bob's hydraulic jack plate on it now. Any advice on the setup is much appreciated!

    I like 15" motors so they arent stuck up so high. With a factory 15" you have an extra 2" set back in the clamp assembly. With that 2" and a 10" plate I run the point 1-1/2" above the pad. Never tried a 9" . Mike

    Wound up with a 20" 2.4 200 for my ski racer. I now have a 12" jack plate. What would be the best prop and engine height?
