My Gheenoe 154 has a 2 1/2” transom riser. I think it could be a bit higher. I’d appreciate it if anyone with knowledge of how high I can raise my engine could look at the photo and give me their opinion.

Raise it 1/4” at a time until it blows out, then drop it back down 1/4” and there ya go!

Not that easy. There’s no adjustments. I’ll have to drill new mounting holes and repair the old ones.

Shim it and clamp it. Don’t run but just a short run. Check clamps and run again. I have told many people not to run their motors only clamped on, but for tuning it is acceptable as long as you are mindful and smart about it. Take a scrap 2x4 and cut 1/4” shims with a table saw then go to the water. I have done this more times than I care to remember!

Great idea
