I agree with most everyone else's comments. I had an old short shaft Evinrude and replaced it with a long shaft Honda 2hp. It seems to be personal taste. The short shaft never gave me a problem over a three year period. I opted for the long shaft because I have the old fixed motor mount and the Honda will not have quite enough room. I had to put a fixed extension on the Motor mount which raised the mounting point about 2 1/2 inchs.
If I had the new motor mount I would probably go with the short shaft.
