Are you asking how high off the prop to put the foil or how high to bolt the motor on
This is like mine. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...015/12/213.jpg
As in the relation of the Cavitaion plate on the leg and the bottom most point on your hull .Thinking of one of these Ozhydrofoils http://www.ozpropellers.com.au/alumi...s-40-60hp.html
Not really sure, sorry.Quote:

The foil looks good.
The foils really make a difference to get up on the plane. Especially when loaded with big fat blokes. Lol. Like me and my mates.
Yesterday I had 4 on it. And it went no where. Lol.
Mega sometimes when there are 4 it's better to go slow so you don't shake the bubbles out of the beverages .Thanks for the help !
Mates son hauled this monster in with the help of some mates
down Airleys Inlet on the great Ocean road.
Its a 9ft Leopard shark, after a few pics it was released
Gunna need a bigger boat situation lol
Jacob my nephew went fishing with me and caught his biggest carp.
All on his own, baiting, casting, retrieving and netting the fish. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2016/01/59.jpg
Also had a couple of visitors while fishing right where I was sitting. Less than a metre away. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2016/01/60.jpg
Just got back from 3 days camping, my brother caught this little beauty this morning, only about 57cms.
The river used to have heaps of cod about 20 years ago until the redfin and crap moved in, the local fisheries have done a brilliant job in removing and controlling the crap and redfin.
Made my day to see them back where they belong.
Even though it was legal we put him straight back.

Where were you fishing for a 37cm cod to be legal.Quote:

Some nice yellow belly from the Wimmera River near Little Desert. Couldn't believe it didn't expect a catch like this. Usually don't have much luck in freshwater and only slightly better luck in salt ! Haha
