Nice, What mount? How much space between hull and tire?

Found it on Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RJKB2FQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1&pldnSite=1
mounted as far forward as I could and I have about 5-6 inches (top and side) from the hull and tire. Tried it out yesterday under various conditions with a half a dozen launch and recoveries, clearance was great.
I also turned the inside of the rim facing the road and that gave me another inch or so and I can measure the spare's air pressure and inflate without having to take the cover off. A fair warning don't buy the MasterLock lug nut lock it wouldn't allow the lug nut to pass through, I bought the fulton and it works great https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000AXUPW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1&pldnSite=1
