Ship Shape TV

[Hooper]

Guys-

I saw an episode of Ship Shape where John is putting a new Mercury (I think) on his SeaBird center console. He needed a 25" shaft for the bracket, but put on a 30" as he believed the higher level of the engine would make for a better ride and help to keep sensitive electronics just that much further away from the ocean spray.

Did anyone else se this episode and what do you think??? Sounded like it might be a good idea and the boat looked slick with the engine raised a few inches.
