Hello. I just installed a new Suzuki 60-HP four-stroke power-cycle outboard engine on my friend's 1982 Boston Whaler 17. I have the engine set all the way down on the transom. To any readers that have a Suzuki 60-HP on a 17-footer: at what height have you mounted your engine? I need some help. Thanks

I had a 90 mounted all the way down on my Montauk and when I raised the engine the gains were noticeable.
I would go up two holes from the current location.
