[QUOTE="hawglet, post: 217164, member: 6134"] I have a 12' mod.V with an overly tall deck due to the previous owners mis-calculations. The trouble is that I have no idea what I have for a trolling motor. It's a Motor Guide, foot controlled and very small. I've searched the net to figure out what it might be but haven't came up with any answers. My question is will a 30lb motor move this boat very well or should I step up to a 45lb? I really don't want to spend more than I have to but also we're planning on selling this boat in the spring and finding a tin boat in the 14-16' range so the motor may stay with that boat. Will a 30lb be enough for a 16' mod-v or jon or will they need that extra 15lbs of push? [/QUOTE]
