Does a 90/65 on a 1648 lowe make me an idiot?

[QUOTE="Lumispawn, post: 382825, member: 18001"] Rude my biggest concern is honestly the hull holding up. I'm thinking about having the bottom painted in wearlon wetlander. Its supposed to be a very strong very slick polymer paint. And adding the UHMW strips on top of that in the hope of making my admittedly somewhat flimsy hull more durable. Still trying to decide if the polymer paints/strips are worth the money. I've had fast boats before though. Had a 90hp prop with a tunnel on a light weight exterminator racing flatbottom. I GPSed that boat at 53 mph. And it was dangerous as can be. (Was set up like that when I bought it.) This boat won't be anything like that fast. I also head perforated flooring laid down with aluminum bracing welded in a grid pattern between the riveted ribs. I'm hoping it will help it hold up longer. [/QUOTE]
