The difference between long and short shaft is 5 inches if memory serves me. The consideration is the relationship between the anti-cavitation plate and the bottom of the hull. The plate should be in the same plane as the bottom or ever so slightly lower than that plane.

So I need to move the transom up3.5 and have a jack plate for the remaining 1-1/2. I could just do all 5 inches with a jack plate. Don’t know how that would look though.
