[QUOTE="LonLB, post: 173951, member: 4391"] [/quote] I bet it will get around great with the right prop. Probably not the fastest boat on the lake. If that 65 idles good you may not need a kicker too.[/quote] I think so. Of course I can't be sure till I try it. I thought about trying to find a deal on a bigger engine, but I'm just going to stick with the 65 horse for now. If I do end up fish a few places I want I'll add the kicker just for added security. Having a back up motor on st clair, or even Burt/Mullet, and The Traverse Bay's on Lake Michigan would be a good idea. As for normal use though, the 65 should work. The only trolling use will be trolling for Musky, so I don't need to creep down super slow like the walleye guys do. Once I get the motor running well, I'm going to add a set of Boyeson Power Reeds. They are supposed to greatly improve idle, and improve throttle response. Maybe more power too, but the better idle is worth the cost to me. [/QUOTE]
