Maybe I need to put 250’ of chain back in the bow.
Thanks,

That doesn't seem like enough of a difference (7" in the specs) to me, especially when you add the additional keel depth and likely a bigger prop. But I don't have any pics of a 31TE single on the hard to comment reliably. I would agree that being a foot deeper than the already deeper spec seems a bit much.
I think that you are pretty close. I've measured my single skeg at 52 to 53 inches to the waterline. Going by the boat on the hard tomorrow and will try to get a picture.
