9.9hp electric start
20"
GB mount with electric winch raising system.
2003 model year.

It's a high thrust motor which I don't care for.  Can't motor slow enough in close quarters.  I'm thinking of finding a smaller prop to reduce the thrust but have not done it yet.

Dear Rhodes
How long is your shaft?
Don’t be offended - it’s nothing too personal.
I’d like to survey Rhodes owners to learn the most common outboard:
1. HP
2. Shaft length-  20” or 25”
3. Motor mount type 
Ex. GB original/ manual
        GB original electric
        GB converted E to M or M to E
         3rd party parallelogram type
         Custom. 
Currently I have 
1.  ‘99 - 8 hp 2 stroke Merc 
2. 25”
3.  Temp. West marine 16” parallelogram type. Original ‘84 rail type with Delrin  sliders to be re-commissioned. 

I can’t send pics because I’m a Mac user but would appreciate any associated photos with replies. 
I’ll report findings to da list.
