[QUOTE="eshaw, post: 458108, member: 22134"] I think wind and current are the biggest considerations to take into account in conjunction with the size a type of hull you use. I use a 16 foot flat bottom and she's a heavy weight. I wouldn't consider anything less than an 80 on it. If it's dead calm I just run it on lower settings. If I were you I'd go to some of the local ramps and marinas and talk to people with similar boats and see what they're using and get their opinions on there setups and take them with a grain of salt. People don't like to talk about the mistakes they've made. You should be able to see a common theme among them as far as size goes. [/QUOTE]
