Carl. Congrats on the new boat.

Are you sure the transom is good? Absolutely no flex when bouncing the motor up and down?

The reason I ask is that if it'll need to be replaced soon it would be a good idea to get it done now and raise it to 25". You could then take the deal on Sandman's motor. The extra 5" will keep much more water out of your boat as well.

If your transom really is 100% good, you can put a jackplate on the transom to use a 25" shaft motor.

Best regards,
Roger
