The boat is rated for 200 hp, and most 150 to 175 go 390 or so. 32# extra anit going to hurt you!!!!!

Re: well here she is!
 

Nice jackplate. $75 is gooooood!

You outta be ok with the weight. I know you must be happy :D

Re: well here she is!
 

MJ, what boat rated for 200? the 18? Mine is 150 :-/

Re: well here she is!
 

They're 150 hp, but you should be fine. Take a fat guy fishing and make him sit in the bow.

Re: well here she is!
 

its rated for a 150 2-stroke when it has a brand new transom...but 16yrs later i'm sure it not all kosher inside thats whats worrying me ...but only one way to find out though...

You'll be fine. Gotta have faith.
