Posted - 04 Sep 2012 : 18:28:30 Hi fellow Norman people, just a quick question, I have a 23 and hopping to change my outboard within the next week or so but am not sure if I should get a long or short shaft and what the diference is. On fleebay at the mo is a 30hp 2003 honda 4stroke, but it's a short shaft, does it matter at all and if so why? Thanks Mike |
