Ýf I use an outboard engine for my second hand one year old Hunter 170, should it be long shaft or short shaft?

Long Shaft

I've got a long shaft 3.5 horse Tohatsu I'm quite happy with. Looking at how she rides and where the anticavitation plate sits, I don't think the short shaft model would suffice. If you can get a four cycle motor, go for it! They tend to be more economical, and a lot, lot cleaner.
