A good match for aluminum fishing boats, RIBs and inflatables, and small fiberglass boats. Always check your boat's capacity plate for its maximum horsepower and weight.
Do I need a short or long shaft?
Measure your transom from the top edge straight down to the bottom of the hull: about 15" calls for a short shaft, 20" for a long shaft, and 25" for an extra-long shaft. The MFS30DEFS has a 15" short shaft. Not sure? Call or text us at (805) 644-6290 and we'll help you choose.
