most of the people I have talked to that have converted to a bracket say they regret that they mounted the bracket too low. I've seen several that ended up with jackplates on the bracket to get it high enough.

The bracket should be installed same as the motor length. If 25" shaft, mount it at 25" height, then you raise the motor using the motors mounting holes. Every 12" out, you can raise the motor 1". That is one advantage of a bracket, you can run in skinnier water, also the water behind the bracket is "cleaner", so this way you can raise the motor without you prop loosing a bite.
