21XDC So i got out today and tried a tempest plus 23p i picked up. I am a little confused here. The set up was the same as running the Rapture 21p with the exception of ptp height. With the tempest i...
Well i picked up a Laser II 24p for a good price, and when i put it on i have a gap around the prop to gear case. So at some point the gear case has been switched out and is a large gear case. So for...

For the ptp measurement i leveled the bottom of the boat at the rear and measured from the floor to bottom of boat, then leveled cavitation plate and measured from floor to center of the prop shaft...
I have a new to me 1989 285 pro with a mercury 150 xr4 with a 14.25x21 rapture stainless prop. Also has a 6" detwiller manual jackplate. I measured the ptp before making any changes and was at 4.75"....
Thank you sir, makes sense now.
