skip the 9.9 honda, the yamaha 9.9 HT is much better motor(the control are in the right place), mostly they are used on the coast
for wind/wave/tides and would be overkill on lakes execpt the great lakes, the extra long can be used but In most case you need
longer rails from GB(to get the motor out of the water).

I used to have a 20" 5 Hp Nissan that worked well except when I went forward  to the mast it would sometimes suck air. ( my body
weight to boat weight ratio is higher then most)

Question, I see that there are a couple of 9.9 Hp models that come in a 25" version.
Does anybody have one these super long shafts? Do you like it?

thanks
