[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 342221, member: 3278"] Yep....not nearly as simple as "just remove that piece in the middle" Will need a driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube unless you cut that. The 8hp engines are pretty good performers. You may want to run that and see if it is enough for you. Decking a 14 however will add a lot of weight to a little v-bottom boat that does not have a lot of hull (planing) surface area to begin with. Your hull loading goes way up which will probably require more horsepower and therefore even more weight. [/QUOTE]
