Correct mounting level for PP's

[bassm1n]

I have a 2017 Legend V20 with 8' PP's. Mine are mounted to a Slidemaster manual plate. I pulled mine all the way up as high as they would go before tightening the bolts to the jackplate. So I have approx 4-6 inches that I can lower them with the normal way they adjust. My question is how you decide where to adjust. If I lower then I can get another 4-6 inches of anchoring but I am affraid they may be in the water when running. Is this a trial and error type of thing?

yes sir as every boat motor jackplate combination is different, can vary based on weight in back of boat etc.. same exact boat motor combo may be different based on how its loaded. You can slowly start to lower them untill you see or feel them draging on holeshot or catching when on plane. It is by trial same as adjusting a manual jackplate.
