Hey Everyone,
I am new to this Site. Already Addicted.
Im fairly green in terms of Motor knowledge.
Im looking to buy a used 15hp for my 14 Lowe Aluminum V-Hull Boat weighs about 100lbs or so, and I weigh about 140lbs. I have no mods to the boat, keeping it simple. A few rod and reels, 2 coolers and rod holders, mask and spear gun. Along with 1 other person.
Should I shoot up to a 20hp? I like a little speed and power.
I also plan on being in the Florida Keys and fishing the Gulf Side flats, bays and on calmer days near the bridges and free dives on reefs around 20 ft of water ( I'm a maniac when it comes to how I fish)
Anyway, I was wondering if some experts may lend me some advice regarding the power of a 15hp motor for my desired type of fishing? I have seen plenty of videos, and from what I see, 15hp moves around 20-23mph with 2 people
Will this be enough?
Anyway, Thanks in advance for any advice!
