My buddy just acquired a very nice aluminum jon boat. The problem is that this boat requires a long shaft motor. His 40hp motor which is almost new is a short shaft model. Does he have any options for making this combination work together? I see that Cabelas sells a slidemaster jack-plate that will afford up to 6" of vertical travel would something of this nature work? Does anybody have any ideas or experience on this issue?
