Hey guys,
Sorry I had been gone for a while, but life gets in the way ( i have 3 kids now.. )but anyway..
I am going to start building up a new Tracker 1436 into a mini bassboat. My motor is a 1975 Johnson 9.9 converted to a 15hp with a 20inch shaft. How hard is it to convert this to a short shaft and what parts do I need to purchase for the conversion? The Tracker 1436 will need a mini jacker jackplate installed to lift the motor up 5 inches or so if I want to keep the motor as is. If i decide to go that route, will that cause the boat to be off balance? I plan to put decking in the 1436 as well..
Any help would be great!
