Default Re: Removing Sea Drive

Okay, I getcha. I'm the one who misunderstood. I'll have a look around West Marine and Boater's World and see what I can come up with for a boot like you have...

Hi Manny,

Sorry for the delay in responding. I haven't been on the forum for too long now!!!

I believe the setback on that Gil bracket was 24 inches.

I can't tell you the difference in performance because I bought the boat with a blown engine with the express purpose of converting it to a bracket.

That said, I think it performed very well with the bracket.

Hi Manny,

That was a bit more tricky. I had to place the bracket to where the anti-cavitation plate on the lower unit matched up with the bottom of the boat. Some say it should be maybe 1/2" above the bottom (I can't recall which way I did it)...

Hope that helps.
