I'm about ready to dive into the same project. Filling transom hole from trs. Plan to cut bravo hole. Anyone have advice what's a good height if I run a standard dwp bravo?

On the 24' model 17 has always worked well with a 3 or 4 blade prop. If you are going to run strictly 4 or 5 blade you can go up another 1/2 to 1 inch.

horrible pic...only got one because it got late. Drive rebuilt. Cleaned up whole drive and also new epoxy on nose cone and fresh paint. Came out really good. 95% rigging done in engine compartment (sorry no pics yet). Engine to go in Mon., Tues. New rams mounted (almost) and getting closer...shooting for Labor Day. Will get better pics next week.
