PRODUCT INFORMATION
INSTALLATION
TRANSOM HEIGHT
WARNING
Make sure the transom height matches the length of the
outboard to be installed.
Your outboard must not exceed the maximum
horsepower indicated on the boat’s capacity plate.
Such overpowering can cause loss of control. Con-
tact your Dealer or the boat’s manufacturer if your
boat lacks a capacity plate.
•
A 48.3 to 53.3 cm (19 to 21 in.) transom height uses a
50.8 cm (20 in.) shaft outboard.
•
The shaft length of the outboard being installed should
come close to matching the transom height of the boat.
Boats designed for remote-steered outboards might
be overpowered by a tiller-steered outboard of the
maximum rated horsepower. Ask your Dealer or
boat manufacturer if you are unsure about your
boat’s suitability.
Determine transom height by measuring from the top edge
of the transom, along the centerline.
Incorrectly matched boat and outboard transom
heights can cause boat instability and loss of con-
trol. Refer to TRANSOM HEIGHT.

Prevent lateral movement and possible outboard
loss by using the mounting hardware supplied or
hardware of sufficient size, strength, and quality.
Refer to INSTALLING THE OUTBOARD on page 61.

A mounting surface that is damaged or too thin to
support your outboard while underway might fail
during operation, causing a loss of control. Be sure
the boat’s transom or mounting bracket is structur-
ally sound and between 41 mm (1 5/8 in.) and 70 mm
(2 3/4 in.) in thickness.

Antiventilation plate
Transom Height
Boat performance depends on outboard mounting height.
Generally, the anti-ventilation plate of the gearcase should
align with the bottom of the hull. Conventional V-hulls often
perform well with the anti-ventilation plate approximately
25 mm (1 in.) above the bottom of the hull.

engine. Refer to SPECIFICATIONS on page 66 for
engine weight.
Use an appropriate hoist to lift the
Test outboard and boat performance at different heights
until the best performance is achieved.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that outboard water pressure is not
adversely affected by the mounting height of the outboard.
