kamie, that confuses me. Why would the powerhead of a short shaft sit any closer to the water? The only difference in the Honda SS and LS is an extension section just above the cavitation plate; the powerhead on the transom mount is the same. What am I missing?

Also, wouldn't the powerhead of a SS actually be closer to the water on a cutout transom?
