Re: New Owner, first question 73 w/ 2 outboards
Havis, my '72 had twin 140's when I bought it (on eBay). It never made it in the water with them. My stock 20" transom would have put me directly on the bottom of the sea right after I backed off the trailer.
When it had the 140's on it, it was hell to trailer it. It wanted to fish tail bad at anything over 50mph. Course I was towing with a V8 Jeef Cherokee which is not the heaviest of tow vehicles.
How does yours trailer? And, will you be trailering or do you have a slip?
I promptly removed both 140's and re-mounted one of them on a fixed jackplate.
Last question, when are you taking us fishing? I want to ride in that boat!! It looks pretty sweet from what I remember. Oh yeah, I lied, one more question , have you fixed that loose windshield yet?
Glad to see you found the board! I'm looking forward to hearing more about your new addition!
