i mount my outboard AV plate 2.6" above hull bottom. it rides so good at slow plane speed allows AV plate to be on top of water at just 17MPH. but once speed picks up and trim out, prop runs a little out of water and it's good for speed and efficiency! no ventilation unless u throw into sharp turns without trimming down/ or slowing down. but in the video it's pretty extreme
the benefits should be obvious : speed ... how much did you gain ? I own a crappy fletcher speed arrow with a mercury 40 hp ( 4 cyl. two stroke ) outboard motor ... I must tell you, I've been thinking about raising the engine to mount a surface drive prop ... since day one ... but there is one million thing I'm not aware of ( need a lot of calculation too) ! for me , this is the future : speed, effectiveness , range , mileage ... no jet ski of this world can match this ...

Get a jet drive if you want it so damn high.
If I may, why not design the tunnel to be deeper?
It’s got a jack plate so that they can lower the outboard idk why they have it so high
