    New 250 SHO on 98 Champion 221

    I just picked up my boat (98 Champion 221/DCX) with a new 250 SHO. I also installed a Bob's hydraulic jack plate. What should be my initial prop to pad measurement? Also, can someone refer me to where the link for how to measure prop to pad is? Thanks to everyone on here.

    Prop to pad is in the stickies up top I believe.

    It is. Look at the picture in post 2 in that thread.

    Can someone help with what starting measurement I should use for prop to pad? I'd like to get an initial starting setting and adjust from there. Also, thanks Lea and Nbraun 492 for the link to the measurement diagram. Exactly what I was looking for

    3.5" is the starting point I believe.

    I would start at 4” since you got a hydraulic plate. You will probably end up between 3.5-3”
