[QUOTE="blackshear, post: 481505, member: 24376"] I raised the motor as high as I could and can only get flush with the bottom of the boat. I called T-H Marine who make the CMC break away mount to see what suggestions they might have. They recommended that I replace the break away mount with the two piece jack plate and raise the motor as much as 3" to 4" above the bottom of the boat. He was very vague about how that would effect the performance of the boat. Right now I have a porpoising issue when I try to lift the bow for a smoother ride. Anyone have any experience with jack plates on smaller (1648) jon boats? [/QUOTE]
