    Strut mounting ?'s

    Is there a minimum distance that the prop should be off the back of the boat? My set up is a seaducer hull with the speed master 21 mono hardware , the worry is when I mount the hardware to the hull, the back of the strut touches the hull and puts the prop at about 3 in off the hull.... Is this to close?

          I've read time and time again, you've got to be spot on with the recommended set up on the Seaducer or you'll have a heck of a time getting her to run right. A well set up Seaducer is a thing of beauty to watch.

            Ha, I hope I'm not getting in over my head lol.... I've heard the the speed master strut has had great success on this boat, so I hope it works. I've got the seaducer rudder, it's really a nice peace.

              You should be in good shape then. It might take you a little while to get her right but it will be worth it in the end. Keep us updated.
