    Nobody here has ever rigged that combo. Regardless there's never an exact number, you always have to let the boat tell you what it wants, and the only way to find that is to go too far and bring it back. You need to load your boat the way you're going to fish, raise until you lose speed, lift or water pressure then back down. No two anythings are exactly identical.
