Title: How to level a hull
Post by: 75 fantasy on February 12, 2023, 10:59:44 AM
When setting the pump intake, which surface do you use to level the hull (front to back left to right)?
Top of the stringers or strakes?
I did a quick search but lots of reading which hurts my head lol.
Thanks

You need to base all your measurements off the keel of the boat. That will be your zero degrees. The boat only cares about the riding surface.
