Seaducer 20 hybrid

Headed out to the pond yesterday and I raised the strut as far as I could which wasn't very far cuz my whole in the rear of the transom is not that big I also moved the fuel tank closer to the engine about 3 in and it helped a little bit but it still runs like it's just plowing the water and I don't have a very good speed with it , seems like pushing the strut down lower would help lift the transom up higher which seems like logical choice, that will have to remove the stuffing tube and make the hole a larger so I can raise the strut up higher yet it's not much bigger than the quarter inch hole itself hopefully I can get one more chance to throw it in the water before the water gets hard

When I took the pictures of mine it sure looked like I had a lot of positive angle in the strut as well as being up pretty high. and if you look at the instruction pictures they also have a lot of positive in the strut .

What prop you running Corey have you tried a 1614 /3 cleaver

Enlarge the hole and I raised the strut and added some more angle in it running an x440/3

I always slot the hole for strut so I can raise it up at least 1/4 inch if needed that rudder still looks way to long.how far below the strut does it measure?

I never measured the length of it I just installed it where it said I guess I could cut it to the length it shows in the instructions

1614 cleaver would loosen it up
