Would one be better off using a shaft length of 22 inches as found on the Tohatsu 3.5 hp outboard as opposed to the 20 inch high shaft lengths of most long shaft outboards. Additionally from what I am used to on my P21 which I had driven using a 8 hp 2 stroke I felt that I never could get most of the power out of that engine to making Hull speed at about ¾ throttle. So I assumed that 2.5-3.5 hp would be just right for the M15 with 2 hp being maybe a bit shy for those BAD days when you need to boogie from a storm. Thanks What is the trick to re-fueling when youre out in bumpy waters BTW Smiley magoo252@comcast.net
