[QUOTE="NCJonboater, post: 189880, member: 5155"] Im running a 93' 25 hp yamaha long shaft on a 14x38 jonboat with a 15" transom. If there is any drag I can't tell it. I mounted a 04' Merc. 25 short shaft for comparision.There is no difference in topend, they both ran 30-31 mph. But on take-off the yamaha left the merc in its wake. I would try the longshaft as is, if it don't work out you can allways raise it up. I was hesitant about a longshaft but now am very happy with its performance on my boat. [/QUOTE]
