[QUOTE="Fishin_Rev, post: 273595, member: 9180"] I know outboard size rating are put on the boat for safety reasons, but i was wondering if anyone had any thought on the subject or first had experience. I have a 13' meyers with an 18hp johnson on it right now. I have the option to get a 25hp. The catch is the boat is only rated for a 15hp. I'm a bigger guy and with two people in the boat the motor just doesn't seem to have the umph to plane out. Anyone got any advice? [/QUOTE]
