Hey guys, I am still new to the forum and am finally getting the time to work on my boat this fall to next spring. I have lot's of plans for it but most importantly I'm concerned about power. For the last 2 summers my boat moved along my trolling motor only and I am finally sick of it haha.
The boat is a older 12' Aluminum and it has 2 added seats in it. As of now it looks the same as in the photograph however I have paid to have it professionally painted black on the outside and white on the inside, it's going to look like a brand new boat hehehe
EDIT*
Ok guys well I have been looking into some 9.9hp motors that are in my price range. The new motor will be a 4 stroke around 80ish pounds.
With just myself along how fast in MPH will my boat go approximately. I'm thinking 20mph maybe more not sure. Never owned a outboard.
What do you all think? How about with two people too? The outboard I'm now considering very strongly is a Nissan 9.8 to be specific...they look awesome
All insight welcome here guys!
Thanks,
Mike
