		I need some advice on a trolling motors for an inflatable 9' pontoon.  I currently have a Minn Kota endura 30.  It works great but when the lakes get choppy the motor comes out of  the water.  I am thinking of upgrading to a max.  My question is do I go with a 36" or a 42" shaft?  Does a longer shaft affect the performance?
If I go with a 45 or 55 thrust I know that's a bit overkill but somedays I want to go full throttle across the lake to get to a spot. Does the thrust slow down enough for a very slow troll?
