For those of you with this setup, do you use the long or short shaft motor? Thanks!

I use the short shaft motor with the KeithB motor mount. I also used it with a Cheata mount previously.
If the lake is rough, once in a while I get a bit of cavitation, but not often.

Is it best to have the motor level with the water line or angled up a bit?
