I can find dimensions on the Tohatsu but not the Suzuki. Tohatsu's generally have really big cowlings and I want my poling platform to be as low as I can get it and still tilt the engine above the bottom of the hull when poling. Anyone ever run across dimensions for Suzukis?

Do they make the Zuk in a 15" shaft?

No, you're correct. The 25 does, but not the 30 even though they are the same powerhead. Supposedly you can put the brains for a 30 on a 25 and make it 30 horse.

tohatsu has big cowlings for cooling purposes and improved air intake.

Don’t try to have the platform made from numbers of the web. Enstal the engine on boat, run it (establish proper hight). I normally then trim engine to highest position and add 1”. You can go a little lower if you dare.

This is for a boat with out a hydraulic jack plate

No, I totally agree with mounting the motor first. Just trying to get an idea. And I doesn't bother me if my motor doesn't fully tilt without hitting the platform. My motor wouldn't on my BT and I never had an issue with it.
