I have never heard of 26" shafts either however, if they DO exist, you could probably mount them in the top holes and be okay (for a single engine). I built my transom to 25" them mounted my engine in the second mounting hole which probabaly raised the engine 1-2 inches. Also I have seen and old Maco and an old Grady with 2 right hand engines. However I agree that a single 150 or 175 would be your best option.
