[QUOTE="maintenanceguy, post: 475160, member: 24227"] "long shaft" means different things to different manufacturers but to me a long shaft is 20-22 inches. What's the shaft length on your motor? A log shaft on a 17.5" transom seems a bit deep but I don't know the specs on either. If the prop is too deep, it will raise the bow and make it hard to get the stern up on plane. You also say your motor bogs down. I understand that to mean that the motor is overloaded and won't get up to full RPM? That would be very strange and I would suspect a motor problem. [/QUOTE]
