Wife gave me the go ahaed now to get it in & get her mounted.
I bought the 60" but i'll check it out good before i make it a 45 incher. Unbeatable price so figured i'd better jump on it.
You will enjoy it for sure. I have the 60" one on my boat. I left it as it was. It sticks up above the deck a little when deployed but has never been a problem.
Jack I’ll check it out good then before I do cut it down because I’ve saw where others have said that too. Also the $500.00 savings made it a lot easier to choose the 60” too. :biggrinQuote:

You are gonna love it.
Any extra it sticks up makes it easier to get it out of the water. Just be mindful of it not sticking too much out of the boat when traveling down the road. You will definitely enjoy it.

Congratulations @ Les!
I would advise against cutting your Terrova shaft to less than 50" or so. You can always raise it in the mount. I've had a couple that never gave me any problems. Word of advice #2. Get yourself a lift cable and install it on the shaft right below the head. I would wrap mine slightly loose about 3 wraps and clamp it with a cable clamp. I know the new Terrovas have lift assist but you will thank me when you get in a rough water situation.
Doug thanks for the tip. If i do cut it i was figuring on 50 inches. I'll see what it looks out before i mount it & if not to high i'll just leave it.
I will definitely second that oneQuote:

I only run away from it after my leg gets tired & back starts getting cramps in it from standing Captain Morgan style on the maxxum peddle constantly trying to hold the boat in place. :Rofl I'll be kicking back attempting to Ketch dem crappie now though. lolQuote:
