An extra long shaft is for a 25" transom, a long shaft is for a 20" transom. Back when the motor was manufactured they made a sailboat version with an extra long shaft but normally it was only available in short and long shaft versions.

Hey bluewaterbill! Thanks for the quick response on motor I.d. Now that I know the model and year I’m still looking to lengthen the shaft. My transom has a cutout in center where 40hp sits. My kicker sits up higher about 5” therefor prop cavatates at higher speeds, transom is shaped like a u I’d say. Ive tried jack plates pain in the a—! Any help or guidance is appreciated! And a happy and safe 4th to all!

To make it longer you would have to find the SEL model of the 9.9 HP and use those parts to convert yours. The SEL is the sailboat version of your motor. You may have to do some looking around to find them. Perhaps you could find one with a bad powerhead and swap yours over to it.
Here are some dealers that are known for having hard to find parts.
