So, I have a 14’ v-hull with a 1993 mercury shortshaft 8 hp that will do about 17mph. I tried a 1987
Evinrude 15 HP long shaft (5 “ extension) and testedit’s mph and got only 19.5 mph (using my hand held
gps). Does that sound correct or maybe I could trychanging the ANGLE of the 15 hp? Just seems like I
should get MORE speed out of the 15 hp then that. Irealize the long shaft is too long but??
