Message: <blockquote data-quote="S.E.R.E.NITY NOW" data-source="post: 515020" data-attributes="member: 35499">I have a 2023 mercury 9.9 long shaft and on a 20" transom it still sat 3 inches low. I'm now buying a 2022 mercury 20hp and I'd like to know if it's identical in shaft length and how it sits because I was going to install a fixed jack plate to raise it up that 3 inches. I'm guessing the long shaft 20hp will have the same issue of sitting low like the 9.9Wondering if anyone has had both and can verify before I drill holes in the transom for this jack plate.I'm picking up the motor tomorrow and headed to the lake to be docked for the season so I'd like to install the jack plate today and not have to pull it out of the water again later.</blockquote>
