It looks like someone cut it down to accept a 20" motor, then put a jackplate on to take it back to 25"!?!?!?!? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
Brian,
The previous owner of my father's Sceptre did that. The boat originally had twins with 20" shafts, then the owner repowered with a single. They chopped the transom down 5" to accomodate the new single. Last season my dad repowered with a 25" Yamaha and installed a manaul jackplate. It actually works quite well and has improved the planing ability of the boat at lower speeds.
