[QUOTE="Skidz, post: 211980, member: 3920"] Welcome Eric! I have a 25 hp 2 stroke on a 1648 .100 all welded modified v, and I get about 23 mph by myself, 20 with 2 people. This is with starting battery, trolling battery, and trolling motor. And about 5 gals of gas. Of course all the tackle as well. I think your 30 would put you easily in that range, maybe a bit more. Now, with the point about the mini jacker, I think it would probably be okay to use with you motor on a short transom. But you could also look at other options as well, maybe an elevator with a bit of setback or something. I will tell you, if I could go back, I would have went with a 20" transom and got an extension for my 25. My hull weight is approx 370#. Hope this helps! Skidz [/QUOTE]
