Default Cone or Multi-plate clutch?

Well, the time has come to put out some really serious boat bucks. I am
about to order the Yanmar 4JH4. The clutch comes in two flavors, cone and
multi-plate. The cone clutch is about 3" shorter which would make life a
little easier but I am wondering what is the advantage of either type?

I will be using an Aquadrive cv joint/thrust bearing so there will be no
prop thrust on the transmission if that makes a difference.
