Get a tall transom. No water coming over the transom when you stop.

there are advantages to tall transom..
no advantage, that I know of, to a short transom..

that alone should make the decision a no brainer...

but then again, there are a lot of no brainers around here...

Think of it like this, in hard true fact....




A short transom is 4" closer to SINKING.
