Hey Tsubaki, which internet site did you pull the info for that jack plate off of? I am looking into one of those and thats a great price.

Think that one came from Boaters World.
Give me a minute....

well almost
 

Why not get several friends together and take the boat to the ramp and check the weight issue in the water. Just have a few guys which equal the weight of the two motors sit as far back as they can. Then have a few more jump on to see how it rides with a few people in the boat. Add one more person to account for ice and beer oh, yea and gas. This should give you a good idea of how it will sit in the water.

Speaking of beer and weight. If I drink a beer while on a boat does it lighten the load by 12oz.

Thanks Tsubaki! Hey Stillrunning, I think it depends on how often your God-given bilge pump comes on :)

Only if you go aft and "check the wake" after each one!:beer:

12 oz of beer weighs about 13.1 oz. Of course drinking it just moves the weight into your belly. Where it goes from there is not always sure. If it's hot enough I can drink lots of beers without having to bilge.
