    I've measured it multiple times and every time I've come up with 4 1/4-4 1/2. Before I drop it I'll verify with some help. It's kinda hard to hold my straight edge and measure at the same time. I'm...

    Lifting Point?

    250 ProXS
    S/N 1B826188

    Where do I lift this thing from? I've been reading about a yellow plug in the end of the flywheel but all I see is a nut on the crank holding the flywheel on?

    Mine makes it almost to the end of the trim cyl's. I don't think it's that it limits trim. I'm thinking it's because the boat has such a negative trim angle. It should just be the lack of the tilt...

    I'm going to try my fury but before the battery swap it has worse bow lift than the tempest. That's why I picked up the tempest.

    4 1/2, but I've tried running it everywhere up to the point where I was down to just below 15psi waster pressure. At that point water spray is coming from in front of me.

    It's already all the way down. I can go 1 hole lower on the motor but I don't know if the steering system will clear. I'll probably attempt that while adding wedges.

    I have a fury as a spare, the tempest always had better lift. Next time out on the water I might swap and see, I'm thinking it will be even worse.

    Somebody mentioned 2 inch spacer might help also....
