Iv seen lots of treads started about a surface drive on a 24/7 boat but have never seen it actually done. So I went for it, I have a late 70's 24 superboat and am now the proud owner of a 1721 drop box drive. I just picked the boat up from the fiber glass guy and had a new transom put in it. My main question is about drive height, I'm under the impression I should mount the drive as low as I can get it in the hull. Is this correct? And better ideas?

sooty about the double post I'm not sure how to delet this thread
