It' worth contacting Glastron if they are still in business (or any other similar manufacturer). However, it seems likely that the long shaft is the problem, as this will unecessary drag and may also cause instability. Too much drag may prevent the craft from planing. Visit the Boat Show or talk to an outboard sales centre who should be able to advise you on the power required.
Good luck. Ed.
