What is the difference between R3 and R5 55 trolling motors
Asked by: auggie72
we just bought a 19' Triumph is a 42" shaft on a trolling motor long enough???
Asked by: Rosanna
The standard shaft length is 42". To determine the right length for your boat, measure the distance from where the shaft is mounted on the deck or the transom to the water. Then add 16" (for MotorGuide) or 20" (for Minn Kota) and select the next closest measurement. We recommend longer shafts for operation in rough water so the prop stays about 6" below the surface when the boat pitches and rolls. Fine-tune the motor’s vertical position with the adjustment on the mount.
