In a video that was taken with a go pro mounted in the notch you can clearly see the tip of the lower above the water. My slip isn’t the greatest however, 15-18 percent at cruise. From my experience and shops I’ve talked to the big imcos run the beat when up high out of the water and have a 16”+ cleaver to get around the big bullet and reach the water. There’s also the handling advantage with the cleavers. My boat was set up high to begin with with long sportmasters. 100+ 4 people coolers, full of fuel. 105 light, best so far of 108
