Mercury made that motor with a 20" shaft, you should be able to find one with a bad power head pretty cheap.
I have a Skeeter 20' Bay boat with an adjustable jack plate and never had a problem with it. It raises the motor 3" above the transom and aft of...
Do you have a separate batttery at the helm for your electronics?
I saw that this morning, this could get ugly.
316 would last a while but it would be expensive.

I don't see any bolts in the picture Carl posted.
Ring Fedders are keyless on a straight shaft. They rely 100% on friction to lock in place and they work really well. I'm not at all familiar with...
Looks like they're using a Ring Fedder to hold it on the shaft. Corrosion could make for a difficult removal if that's the case. That's a keyless...
