[QUOTE="samuelh1987, post: 476863, member: 21854"] I had a Richline V which was basically the same dimensions as yours. I had a 18hp and had to raise the motor up 3/4". I used a piece of ply cut to the same width as the transom, then bolted the motor on. I now have a 12' boat with a 9.9 and get the same speed. I have to put the trim pin in the hole closest to the boat with just me and the 3rd hole back with 2 people. I'd say your right in that you'll have to fiddle with it based on occupants. also, have you tried a hydrofoil? I've found they help a lot with small boats like these. [/QUOTE]
