  I've had a similar problem on an aluminium cat. Solved it by putting a whale tale on the outbaord and adjusting the trim.

  ive always used the general rule that.

  with the prop in its lowest position, the top of the prop, in this position, whould be 2 inches below teh boat, But mind you, That how my father told it to me. and it seams to work fine.

  A lot depends on the bottom design of the boat, but an aluminum boat, I would recommend starting with the center of the prop shaft at least 5 inches below the bottom of the boat. Trim makes a diiference too as does prop design and condition.

  I'm not too sure I'd want to cut the transom down too much, but the prop shaft does need to be at least 5 inches down.
