    306 canyon - do engines touch water when raised?

    I never understood why the engines need to have the bottom a couple or inches in the water. When I see my same model with twin Suzukis that stay dry when raised. So is it an engine issue or a boat issue.

After a few hours the sunberella stretched and they...
