How high should the prop be mounted? I got an OS.21 Outboard and a Dumas Deep V 21. I figured it would effect performance where its mounted.

Any hints?

The top of the prop boss should be level with the keel of your boat
you will get the best proformance that way

You can drop it down a bit because the water humps down after it exits the hull in the rear .
