Your guideline for cavitation plate is good since it is based on function. I was not aware that a plate running below water level could cause problems but it makes sense especially in a turn. Most boats I see at boat shows have the engines mounted what appears to be low. I look at the cav plate WRT the trailing edge of the hull. Most are below the running surface of the boat so probably end covered. I put jack plates on my twin engine 26’ center console. It took 1.75” to get the cav plates running on the surface. Everything seemed to run so much more smoothly and the fuel consumption really improved. The Yamahas have fuel rate consumption to 2 decimal points. My background is engineering so I watch the abstract stuff just for fun. I’m gonna end up on somebody’s front lawn soon. Good thing the wife has no interest and has a loud scream. She watches where I think I’m going. Perfect relationship.

Hey Greg, Did elevating the cavitation plate help with top speed? My comment from above Recently bought a boat. I'm having issues with top speed being slower than pretty much everyone on any forum. Its a 1995 Grady White Adventure 208 with Yamaha F200. My anticavitation plate is level with the bottom of the hull. It also rides a little more nose high than other boats I've been on when on plane.

next time, have a place to hang the motors after removal straight from the boat to the hangers then onto the creates after new motors are installed next time cut the bolts off when there's enough space between the bracket and boat so you dont torque damage the transom next time, install hydrophilic or electric jack plates. ( a must ). You need full up, down, forwards, and back adjustability while under way at high speed to get it dialed in perfectly on the go . Seal them up water tight 1st and let them dry......... THEN mount e motors. next time, install motor leashes ( aka seat belts ) Nice boat . great channel .

"Water Pressure Gauges"; By now, most outboard manufacturers have adopted the "exhaust out the prop" dump. For all the Merc Lovers, please always "Keep and Eye On" those water pressure gauges. Whether. Nylon or Plastic, the impellers that drive cold water from beneath the Cavitation Plate up and into the engine block, will melt down in seconds, if sufficient water pressure Isn't consistently maintained, especially if you like to Trim the engine out creating less hull contact with lake or ocean water. (don't ask how I discovered this) I ran a 3 blade Cleaver (on an outboard?) a Cleaver tends to "Pick the transom area Up and Out" of the water And so; Trimming raises the front of the hull out of the water and then, the cleaver raises the back! Mucho airborne with a slight "walking to the right from time to time". Got 86mph on a 21 Challenger with One 300 Black Max. (one hand on the wheel) My mistake was (to cheap to) go for the ModVP 270hp EFI! 13 grand for the 300 Black Max/18 grand for the VP! doy. Always had to; "go lay down for an hour", after a great boating day! Sincerely your Retired Salvation Army Major

@searider9922 4 жыл бұрын
The best motor/transom match is the one where water flow at speed skims right under the upper small plate, that's under the protruding front lip. Once there prop will work spot on on all water cond ranging from flat calm to choppy, windy water conditions. From there can go straight for a prop maximization to pull wot revs up towards middle to max wot rpm range as usually loaded. Once there and with deck load evenly distributed , combo will achieve a superb fast hole shot plane. To check that spot on height must pull head out transom and visually check what's going on at back of motor, will know if in need to raise or lower a tad the motor as this is not a wild guessing motor installation.

Hey Andy! Thank you, I dont have any footage of replacing those mounts. I can see what I can do about helping get you the info to do so though. Youre talking about the motor mounts right? Those arent that bad and you should be able to do it yourself for sure. You'll want new nuts and stuff before you start, and you might even need new bolts depending on how the old ones come out. If I remember correctly they are either an 18 or 19 mm. It's been awhile since I've done one, usually only when changing out the mid sections on the 225s that rot out.

You're welcome! Thank you for commenting. Hahaha, it's amazing what you can find deep in the depths of a boat! To be honest, I have no idea what is going on there, some of the boats that we work on get a ton of abuse put on them and you never know what you might find. Yellowfins are a great boat, but they are still made out of wood too. Transoms take such an abuse, especially in heavy heavy seas with all the weight and torque of the engines. I'm not sure who patched that up or if it was just done to give a little more strength to the transom. Thanks for noticing!

@BornAgainBoating 8 ай бұрын
You can do it manually, but you can also just like you said put a power pack on the engine where the power and ground cables go and use the trim. Or like Mercury needs clean power, so you can just pull the wires that go to the trim unit out and disconnect the bullet connectors and then put power to them there to run the trim and get the angle you need.

Generally between 1/2-1" for every foot yes. If it is to low, then the anti-ventilation plate will get pulled under the water and yes it can cause porpoising.

Kinda on the same subject.. How is the 3 motors controlled with two controls? Or did I miss something?
@BornAgainBoating 5 жыл бұрын
@@davidjessee7701 nope, you're right, there's only two control handles. They do what mercury calls "shadow mode". Which just means that when both handles are in the same position whether forward or reverse. The center engine will mimick the two outside engines and go into that gear. Now if you put port in forward and starboard in reverse. The center engine will stay in neutral!

where should the anti-ventilation plate sit in a single motor application? I have a single 130 E-TEC on my 17'7'' Pionner Sportfish and have always thought it sat too low.

Measuring mounting height- question. Does it matter if it’s Suzuki vs mercury using the straight edge water pickup method? I’m considering one hole up bc the motor looks buried. But will try and see where I land with the straight edge. Thank you

I watched this video to see where to mount your motor and where the water should be going across your lower unit and you say it should be coming off the bottom of the boat and should be above your water pickup. where he has the straight edge coming off the bottom of the boat you're about a third down on your water pickup and if you look at 4:14 the back of his straightedge past his right hand you'll see the straight edge ain't even up against the bottom of the boat so that means that your water pickups will be out of the water when the boat is on a plane. I'm not going to mount mine like that I don't want to burn up my motor not sucking water. I'm going to Mount mine lower where the water will be going over the top of the water pickups on the lower unit.

I really want a rib boat for the rough Waters in Hawaii. I want twin 30s.I'm going to buy a Chinese boat and they say that only one engine can be mounted on 580. Do you know of any way to mount twins on a transom just made for 1? the reason of course is to make sure I got a backup motor if something goes wrong. Any other ideas for a backup? I could just store a small trolling motor on board in case something happens but that would take awhile to get back home safely. Unless you have something else it might be my only option.

@BornAgainBoating 4 жыл бұрын
Hello, sorry for the confusion. No I can't because every boat is different. That is why you have to measure between the steering arm and the propshaft. Compare the two distances and turn the propshafts in about a 1/4 more than the steering arms.

Thank you! I think you are talking about the leak down tester. That's used to put compressed air into the engine cylinder and see how much of it leaks out. Leaking past the rings and the valves.

So i have a center console with a single verado 300 on a 28" bracket. I noticed cruising at 3800 rpm... Trimmed up... My cav plate is fully submerged... Cant see it at all. So i pulled the boat and measured as shown in the video here and it is set up almost exact as show. The top of the straight edge to the bottom of cav plate is 2.5"... Should i raise it a couple more inches?
@BornAgainBoating 4 жыл бұрын
Raise it up one hole on the bracket and see what that does, but take into consideration at wide open throttle the set up might be perfect :/ sounds like a heavier boat, so at cruising speed like 3800 the boat is sitting deeper in the water and so the water is able to flow over the top of the plate
@brianlebowitz9738 4 жыл бұрын
Sounds good! Thanks for the reply! The motor right now is as high as it can go. The boat is a 25 Proline center console. I ordered a static jackplate to lift it up another couple inchs. I will run it WOT and check again before installing the jack plate. Thanks again for the reply!

my Yamaha F150XB single motor rubs on the mount when I trim it down, can I adjust that? It's the little wings that stick off the motor that fit between the wings on the transom motor mount, slows my trim down when it comes in contact. Maybe a topic on how to adjust that? Looks like one big bolt.

Every transom is different, if its running fine, you probably don't need to change it. Depends on how the engine sits when its mounted. Make sure the plate isn't buried in the water

Might seem like a silly question but when someone repowers a boat, what do they usually do with the old engines? Are they traded in on the spot?
@BornAgainBoating 5 жыл бұрын
No, that's not a silly question at all. It depends on the owners and the engines. Some engines arent worth any money, so they get sold to a wholesale that parts then out and scraps the engine. Other engines are sold to a different wholesaler that then repowers boats and sells them. Sometimes the owners have someone that they want to give the engines too or sell them too and then sometimes the owners want any too much money for them and so no one buys them and they sit until they are worth even less that they would have if they would have been sold. I guess it really depends on the owner! Great question, thank you for asking :)
@DaBrute 5 жыл бұрын
Thanks!! I always imagined the owner hauled the boat plus the old engines home after the install - which would be a major pain I'm sure
