[QUOTE="rusty.hook, post: 178663, member: 3628"] I always try to plan for the future. If you get a short shaft and it works fine for you now, but what if you get a bigger boat and want to transfer the motor to that boat, but it is too short, then you will have to buy a long shaft for that one. You can always raise the motor up on the mounting bracket if it's too long. I always buy the fold out bracket troll motor and mount a Big Foot floor mounted off-on switch on the front deck and use an extension handle. Also the reason I buy the hand model instead of the foot operated model is the amount of space the foot unit takes up, and the hand model is approx $200.00 cheaper. [/QUOTE]
