[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 462309, member: 7376"] I have in the past used a CMC breakaway (5" set back) with a Suzuki 25. Suzuki's have short tillers, or at least the old DT25C I had did. With the short tiller and 5" of set back, it was TOUGH to get turned in tight quarters such as flooded timber. It was just a long reach, that's all. Most of the newer motors have longer tillers than that old Suzuki had. The pre 2017 Yamaha 4 strokes were short, but still longer than a Suzuki. The '17-newer are longer and angled toward the operator a little which is really nice-probably work pretty good with a set back. I haven't tried it yet, though I do have a jack plate in the shop ready to bolt on....problem is, boat won't fit in the garage with 5" more length. I have maybe 2" to spare. [/QUOTE]
