I have a 1985 Bass Tracker Pro Guide V16 Aluminum boat with a 20" transom. It currently has a long shaft 35 hp Evinrude with no tilt or trim. My problem is three fold, first is the motor won't push the boat any faster than about 18 mph WOT. Second, I have it set on the last hole (in the bracket) closest to the transom and water splashes inside and won't keep the bow down. I should also add that I installed a Sport SE to help with bow problem. It has been suggested that the motor is to long for the boat even though the cavitation plate is even with the bottom of the boat. I would like to hear comments and or suggestions.
