move your trim pin down to the bottom hole.

Calvin I'm going to look at your boat when I can,if I can I'll do it tonight if not tommorow when I get off of work.We may be able to do something but I'll have to see,just hang tight.
As far as jughead he will hunt if you take him and your killing lots of birds,but its like all the other toys he has they are all just a fad.He has a new hobby every 3-4 months.

 Re: just got new short gtr transom questions please???
Its most likley your transom angle not your transom hieght. You need to have 18 to 20 degrees of transom angle for the motor to be in the right place. 16inch transom is fine for a shorty.
And that is 20 degrees back from 90degrees of the floor of you boat.

My 15* transom works fine. I still smoke the other rigs at my camp when running to da blinds. Just adjust the transom mount man.
