[QUOTE="Ironhorse2022, post: 491707, member: 31989"] First of all, your boat looks amazing. Like it just rolled off the line. As to your question, are you saying the new engine option is about 200 heavier than what you have now ? Are you concerned the extra weight is too much ? If so, it seems to me you could move fuel and battery up front (if necessary) to balance the load and reduce your cargo capacity by 200 and be fine. As long as you don’t exceed max trust ratings, your transom should be fine while your in the water. Now trailering might be a bit tougher on the transom - I’d be sure to use one of those braces that distributes engine weight down to the trailer. I’m no expert on this stuff - just an opinion.
