The engine is mounted on the top hole, and the top set of bolts are 2-1/4" below the top edge of the hull if that helps to find the height.

Drewread,

Your motor is mounted in the BOTTOM set of bolt holes in the motor bracket and therefore is mounted all the way up.

Your upper holes in the transom may be a little lower then normal but not that much.
The normal is 1 7/8" to 2" approximately.

However, there does not seem anyway you can lower the motor the way it is now mounted without drilling new holes.
What is the distance between the upper and lower holes?
5 3/4", 6 1/2", or other?

Let us know when possible.
