Looks like they run BIG K planes and some kind of wing/plate on the outdrive?

Seems most of the big power photos of those Aussie ski nut boats (they're badasses), they have #6's on them.

Since it's still winter up here in the Northeast, all boating is theoretical right now.
I'm trying to figure out the X measurement on my Pachanga 22.
number 1
Am I doing this right?
number 2
from what I've read, somewhere around 3.5" is about where it should be, it looks like I'm more like 6.75"
any help appreciated

The X dimension is the engine crankshaft center to the bottom of the boat. If I remember correctly a bravo input shaft to prop shaft is 21.875. So if you’re measuring 6.75 from the bottom to the propshaft center your X is 21.875 - 6.75 = 15.125.
6.75 below the bottom is a good spot for a good three blade like a mirage plus. Start going up higher then you need to add blades which can then lead to issues like stern lift, poor trim etc. If your boat handles well with the 3 blade and has good trim traction I suggest leaving it as is.

We're waiting for Spring to test the modified Mirage. We also have a Mirage Plus 29P to try. Come on Spring.
