Everyone loads these boats so differently. My old 72' model seemed to perform well with a 135 Johnson.....but again it was a monster motor in 1973. Also, we didn't even have a bilge pump or radio, our motto was there's no more efficient bilge pump than a scared man with a 5 gallon bucket! A V20 performs well with a wide range of power, you decide how to load it down. I love the way the flare keeps the bow from stuffing into an oncoming wave at the last moment.
