[QUOTE="Shootstraight, post: 503398, member: 32793"] As others have said weight is a big killer of speed on these small boats. Lead acid group 31 batteries can weigh close to 90 pounds each. If decking is wood especially 2x4 and 3/4” deck that’s a bunch of weight. Even how much gear you bring on a trip affects your speed. My buddies tackle box weighs close to 80 pounds, I’d bet we lose 2-3 mph when he brings that monster. [/QUOTE]
