I am still looking at getting a new motor for my polycraft tuffy rated at 15 hp so here is the story so far.
Due to medical issues I want a 4 stroke with electric start and power tilt and trim no manufacturers make a short shaft 15 hp with tilt and trim.
So options are get hull recertified to 20 hp but one company I approached wont do it
Fit an after market tilt and trim $1,000 plus
Or my latest thinking is can I buy a long shaft 15 hp with tilt and trim and convert it to a short shaft?
is it only the drive housing that is different would this be all I need and change over bits and pieces?
And the motor I have decided on is a Suzuki DF15A
Any help would be appreciated.
