That is a good deal. Let me take a measure when I get home and see if that will work on my one man pontoon.

You can shorten the shaft if you need to.  A hack saw and drill is all that is required.  Let me know if you need help.

Really...how does the drive occur in these units? I would prefer the higher thrust.

It's a tiller style transom mount. You don't have to worry about the drive. Just shorten the tube like Thumper said. Simple on this type motor. You'll be on plane in no time!!  ;D
Yesterday, I was at the bottom. I was at the bottom of a valley, in the river. Then my eyes hiked up the mountains to the snow capped peaks. I thought, "When I am at this lowest place I can be, standing in a river, everything is looking up."

Wires?? Wires?? We don't need no stinkin' wires.

(I took your item number and entered it in the basspro website. That's the pic that came up.  ;D )

Leo,

Pleasure to meet you today and thank you for the sale. Hooked it up when I got home and showed my new toy to my wife (she didn't share the enthusiasm I had ;)
