[QUOTE="jcunard, post: 461073, member: 24300"] I had the same issue as the original poster but with a 2013 15HP long-shaft Mercury on a 14 foot Lund with a 20 inch transom. The motor was originally installed with the transom bracket flat against the top surface of the transom. This put the cavitation plate about 2 inches below the bottom of the boat. The dealer reinstalled the motor with a 3/4 or 1 inch piece of starboard between the top of the transom and the clamps. This was as high as he could go and still allow the clamps full contact with the transom. This increase in height was enough to eliminate the spray over the transom. No guarantees but the original issue sounds alot like mine. [/QUOTE]
