    STV Euro ??

    Hi, I'm working on a similar hull and wonder if someone can tell me the built in setback from the pad to transome on a STV Euro. Thanks

    Are you looking for the vertical distance from the bottom of the pad (just below the drain plug) to the bottom of the built in set back?
    OR...
    The horizontal distance from the transom to where the motor or jack plate bolt on?

    Thank you! That gives a figure to start with. The reason for all this is the boat I have is a VT200 Shadow and most of the people I've found are running 12-14" jack plates with 2.4 and 2.5 motors. Well I got to looking at STV setups and it looks like a lot of them are only running 4-6" plates. I will be running a 3.0 motor so I have a lot of things to consider. It became obvious that the first place I should look was if there is difference in the built in set back. Thank you so much.

    From my pad bottom to the bottom edge of the transom is around 9". If it's around 15" on the STV it explains the reason for the different sized jack plates on the two similar hulls. Thanks
