| Post subject: | Best shaft length? |
I'm building a Briggs Vanguard 9hp Longtail. My question is how long should I make the shaft and what angle? I have seen 60in all the way to 72in shafts.... Building this for a 1436Jon short transom so want to keep weight down as much as possible..I have a idea of what I want to do but figured I get some more input/ wisdom..............Thanks |

I went 60" on the exact same set up (motor and boat). Did not have any problems. Mag10 |

my buddy had a 16 gdlt crawfish model with a 58" shaft on a 1436 and handles great. |
