and where, or how far from transom did you put it., I lowered my bracket { as recommended by the classic sea craft gurus} in the back to 2 1/2 inches above the original bottom. I know you said I could go to 2 inches with out causing any bad after effects to the ride.but I am still too scared to go that much. I was 3 1/2 inches higher. Besides my bracket and transom will be lighter then any of yours. ha ha. I also shortened my bracket from 30 to 26 inches for a opti 150 hp on the back.
If anyone has a picture of the hatch area in their bracket 20 I would appreciate the look see.
