[QUOTE="huntinfool, post: 150264, member: 1931"] First and foremost...Welcome to the site. I too have a 16' Lowe and I have a 40hp and it scoots pretty good. As for planing with a 25hp I can't say for sure, but I can get mine to plane with less than half throttle. Maybe mine does because of the prop and wouldn't with the smaller prop of a 25hp. Next using the boat as a ground is generally a no no. Using the boat as a ground will cause electralisys (sp). This eill eat the metal of the boat and make it weak. I have had boats all my life and I can honestly say that I have had more fun modding my boat and doing it my way. Plus when I fish it, it is exactly how I want it. I can not wait to get back in it and go fishing again. I'll try and get some more pics of my boat as it is almost done. [/QUOTE]
