Default Re: Motor Length / Transom Length

The factory twin setup on the early 80's SC was a 25" transom, and twin 20" shaft length motors. I just sold a '74 Tsunami with a 25" transom (actually 26 1/2") that came with twin 140 hp 20" Mercury motors new, and was later re-rigged with a single 225 Johnson with 25" shaft.

In 1984, I rigged a Seavette with twin 235 Evinrudes, and we used Second Effort prepped 20" shaft motors. WFO was 77 mph.

As far as I know, the pre-'88 SeaCrafts were not available with 30" transoms.
