[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 288489, member: 7544"] IMO, it doesn't mater what you do, you're not going to get the boat to plane with a 4hp. Until this past spring, I owned a 12' semi v with a 4 hp merc. It didn't mater if it was just me and fuel or me/fuel/and 300 more lbs, the boat was going to go between 6-6.4mph not mater what setup I used. Over time, I tried every conceivable weight distribution and tilt setting. My buddy has a 4hp Johnson and gets almost identical results with a slightly larger jon boat. [/QUOTE]
