Attachment - Honda Marine BF9.9D Owner's Manual

If the outboard motor is installed too
low, the boat will squat and be hard
to plane,and the motor will spray
water that may enter the boat. It will
tend to porpoise, and high-speed
stability will be reduced.
If the outboard motor is installed too
high, that will cause propeller
ventilation.
Optimum installation height varies
with boat type and bottom shape.
Contact the boat manufacturer for
any special recommendations that are
unique to a specific model of boat.
If the transom needs to be modified
to accommodate the outboard motor,
contact the boat manufacturer and
follow their recommendations for
corrective action.
