I think that motor would effectively push MY boat (hint hint) that would do good on a small aluminum 10-15' or a kicker on a large boat. hope that helps.

I've got a 97 15 HP Johnsons on a 14' Jon boat - all I can say is hold on for dear life! Not as fast as Hog Hunter's Duckworth, but just fast enough to make you think twice about opening the throttle up - especially in a flat bottom with 18" sides. :shocked: Zoom Zoom!
