Default Outboard info

Good day !
Would it be difficult and or costly to change parts in my very good
working 1992 evinrude 15HP long shaft to make it a short shaft ?
i plan to buy an inflatable and it needs a short shaft engine...
Thank you

Yann

Difficult = No
Costly = Yes

You might find somebody with a short shaft that would prefer a long
one though. You could work out a swap.

I agree with Rick - This could be a real problem.

One way might be to find a Evinrude dealer and see if
they have an old engine around that you could salvage
the mid-case from. I have a 2000 FICHT that I'm trying
to find a 25" mid-shaft for and it's been a real trial.

You could haunt some of the forums or try and place
an ad in Craig's list or something similar.
