[QUOTE="reedjj, post: 192400, member: 4585"] My wallet has a HP limit though. LOL! I also need to keep the boat kinda small 1652 is the biggest I can go. The 1552,1648,1652 are all in my sights. I am really liking the idea of the 50-55 hp OMC with a jet unit. I was on another thread and posted a couple pics of the riveted Alumacraft 1648 NCS (no center seat). It can take up to a 35hp motor. Maybe I can just save some money and get the riveted boat and save the money for a new Tohatsu 50/35jet. I don't need a super tough boat with UHMW or anything, I just need it to run shallw. submerged logs and soft sand/mud bottoms are all I have to worry about. I think the riveted Alumacraft would be plenty tough for my needs. I have been very impressed with my little 1542 riveted jon so far. But then again your blazers/legends/alwelds/snyders..... are so friggin cool! [/QUOTE]
