About to pull the trigger on an ultrex and cant decide between 45" or 52". Im coming from a motorguide digital. The model number is motorguide 9bt42gaaf. When googled that says its a 45" shaft. When physically measured from the top of the motor to where the shaft goes in the head its 42"???? I assume thats where the 42 in the model number came from. I have read a few conflicting reports on how to measure shaft length. One says to measure how i did the other says its the extra length that is in the motor and head. How is the ultrex measured compared to the old digital. I don't want a foot of shaft sticking up while I'm fishing but i do need a few extra inches from what i had as the prop will very occasionally barely come out when the lake is rolling.
