[QUOTE="Scott F, post: 443141, member: 23059"] A longer motor shaft can drop the motor head lower in the water which can make it a bit more efficient but, when you get into shallow water, it will strike the bottom. If you raise the head up so you can move in shallow water, the height of the top of the motor may interfere with your ability to cast and get in the way. Myself, I'd go with the shortest motor you can. [/QUOTE]
