[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 4455, member: 55"] I have the 12 foot version of your boat, and a 48 inch shaft (shortest one the Powerdrive came in. It is incredibly long, I you would definitely be fine with a 36 inch. Did you see my post farther down this forum about mounting a trolling motor to a vee hull? No holes required in the boat. Take a sheet of 3/4 inch ply, and cut it to fit the vee, with about 2 inches on each side. Now, get a chunk of aluminum (we used some extrusions with goofy shapes, but regular chunks work fine) and cut the angles to fit exactly under the gunwale. Now, drill holes in the ply, and the aluminum. A 5/16s bolt holds it down just fine. Removable, and doesn't damage the boat at all. See pics in that thread. [/QUOTE]
