Putting this in my stick steer 16' boat. Currently running a mk edge 50lb with a 42" shaft. which seems to be perfect height for my spider rig set up and stays in the water in wind. I'm afraid that the 54" will stick up too high and get in the way of my spider rig.

I know I can sink it down deeper but afraid I'll beat it up too bad on stumps and shallows. Can the terrova be raised higher like I do with edge by pulling my rope to raise prop up to skim the top of water in shallows or over stumps?

Thats why I was searching to see about cutting shaft to accommodate.
Get the 54 inch. Try it on your boat. If it doesn't work out, just have it cut down. Talk to the folks you buy it from about cutting it. That way your warranty stays intact.

The terrova does not lift like a regular trolling motor. Doesn't have a rope at all. You unlock it, slide it up and back to lock it down.
