Shaft Length Recommendation

Transom Height Shaft Length
30 cm / 11.8 inches – 40 cm / 15.7 inches Extra Short*
40 cm / 15.7 inches – 50 cm / 19.7 inches Short
Higher than 50 cm / 19.7 inches Long

* This shaft length chart is for your reference only. The calculation from steps above would be more reliable if you get conflicting results.

Model XS (in) S (in) L (in)
Spirit Series 20.7 24.6 29.5
Navy Series N/A 25.0 29.9

👉 For most small dinghies and aluminum boats under 15ft or 4.5m, extra short shaft or short will work depending on whether the transom height is over 40 cm / 15.7 inches or not.
👉 For boats with the transom height higher than 50 cm / 19.7 inches, a long shaft version is more suitable.
