I think the only time the outboard does not preform well is in a heavy seaway. If you are out and the wind pipes up 25-50, plan on sailing. you may be able to power up to 30, but the sea state will be the deciding factor. I knew you were going to ask about the height I cut mine. I dont know off hand, but I will check when I get a chance. It may be a week or so.

I am considering cutting the transom and using a 15hp. I am planning on a 2 stroke, but was wondering if you guys think a 4 stroke would be ok, found a good deal on one from a friend. Thanks for the info and thoughts.
