What is the correct length for a replacement outboard motor on a 1985 23'
Superfisherman Center Console?

If originally a single, it was probably cut for 25". If it was cut for twins and you want to run a single, you'll need a 30" shaft. Take a measurement to be sure. Measure along the transom from the top center of the transom cutaway down to the bottom of the keel. The result + or - an inch will be your answer.

center of splash well to bottom is 30" so i would need a 30"single they did have a 25" transome so measure it
