[QUOTE="bobbyp2010, post: 406609, member: 20619"] So I'm right around the corner from buying a new Alumacraft 1232 from academy. The boat is rated max h.p. 7. I've read through the forums and am aware of the dangers and legal issues of over powering a small boat. I've decided on buying a new tohatsu motor to pair and am trying to decide on HP. I will go with either 6H.P 15" pull start or 9.8H.P. 15" pull start. 9.8 sounds great but not sure the extra h.p. is worth the weight and cost. Anybody with a1232 and a 6hp or 9.8 out there? 6hp guys, do you find yourself wishing you had more H.P. 9.8hp guys, wishing you had the smaller size? [/QUOTE]
