[QUOTE="MonSteRR, post: 273308, member: 7761"] I was wandering if a 5hp 4 stroke mtr will push a 14' boat with 2 adults and one 13 yr old. Went out to Diamond Valley Lake and took a 42 thrust Minn Kota. Day was real windy and the battery went completely dead. Me and my friend had to row ourselves back to shore and that was no fun at all. I have also a 9hp Tohatsu 2 stroke, but that lake is very strict and allows only 4 stroke. Do u think its worth putting a 5hp to desperately fish this clear water lake. Lots of bass, but only big boats are able to go that distance for the good spots. we stayed close due to fear of battery going dead, which it did. Any suggestions, there is a great deal a neighbor is selling this motor for $200.00. Is it worth it? [/QUOTE]
