[QUOTE="thenextlevel, post: 371967, member: 14305"] I just picked up a new Hog Island SW16 skiff with a Yamaha 40/30 jet. For those of you that don't know about these boats they are made out of the same material as a Yeti cooler. Lightweight, quiet, and virtually indestructible. The boat will be used for river fishing. I got it set up with oars and casting stations. I ran the boat over the weekend and am very impressed with how it performs. I am coming from a older model 16 foot stick steer inboard jet jon with a 60hp 2 stroke motor. The motor seems to have plenty of power for the boat. The mechanic who put it on clocked it at 26 MPH with two people in it. It jumped from a dead stop to being on plane in about 5 seconds. I didn't test it's shallow water abilities but will soon once I get more comfortable with it. I am certainly enjoying the 4 stroke fuel injected motor over my old 2 stroke for sure! [/QUOTE]
