1980 Pro XS Manual Jackplate height

[Sinisterj]

AVX 1980 with 150 proXS owners what height is your manual jackplate set at? I do not feel like I’m getting enough bow lift and maybe I need to adjust?

I have the non pro xs merc and during the summer with a full load and 4 people in the boat I was getting 58 consistent

is that 2.5 inches below pad level? Mine needs to be adjusted I believe and mine is 4 inches from pad. I keep thinking I need to raise it cause seems too low.

thanks for pic, yep mine is way low but I have the non pro xs. Assuming wouldn't be terribly to much difference- this will give good reference point to start adjusting.
