[QUOTE="russ010, post: 131555, member: 677"] you don't want it all the way down in the water, that causes more resistance. I measure 12" down from the bottom of the transom to the center of the trolling motor. that is for my 36" shaft motor, and I keep it straight up and down. I've also got a 42" shaft and I measure it the same distance, but I kick it back one notch so it's at an angle... I don't know why, but that's where I get my fastest speeds [/QUOTE]
