I have a chance to buy a 2003 Mercury Bigfoot 25HP Four Stroke (long shaft) and wonder if it would be appropriate on my 15.5' fiberglass fishing boat (Pedestal seating). The boat has a 16.5" transom. I can not measure the Merc as it is about 6 hours away from me, but I know its a long shaft and the specs say 20"
Is the long shaft too long for that transom?
Somewhere I read the Bigfoot is more appropriate for a Pontoon type boat. Is that really the case?
Thanks.
