I need a trolling/kicker motor for my Overnighter. Would a short shaft work? What bracket would you recommend? Thanks.

I had a short shaft kicker on the back of my 248 Offshore Pro and unless you mount the bracket very low the prop of the kicker will not be low enough to adequately push the boat. IMO I would go with a long shaft kicker.
