My mechanic mantains that I need the long leg, but I am not completely sure of this.
Let’s make this scenario: the 150hp engine, when “tilted” keeps the propeller well over the water.
If I install such a Bracket which has an ‘up” position, the 9.9 propeller, once tilted, should be well over the water, higher than the 150 when tilted.
I am not sure that a short leg engine goes well under the water line, which is worst...
