Now I may need to do some prop tweaking to get the speed up. I was
thinking low 20s tops but read a few posts were folks were getting more
than that. Any experience with similar combos and what top speed was?
I may be limited by the 'little foot'.

Anyway, here's a link to some (kind of dark) pics.... hope it works:

How is it towing that thing? How wide is it? Easy to launch from the
trailer? Reason I ask, is I can get one just about like that pretty
cheap, needs some work, of course, but I'd like to have it in addition
to my bass boat.

I have a 1/2 ton GMC 4x4 with towing package and hd springs... little
bounce but easy tow. I think the boat weighs 1600 lbs? Previous owner
said he towed it with a 4cyl Nissan Frontier.

Not sure on the width... 8'?

Launch / recovery is a breeze... couldn't be any easier. The center
rollers are easy to hit... and they just guide it right on.

I pull mine with a Windstar Van with no problem. However, my trailer is the
type with the wheels under the deck inside the pontoons. I wouldn't want to
tow it too far as it rocks from side to side somewhat. A friend had his
boat, trailer and all tip over as he was turning off the exit ramp and up
onto the overpass and was hit by a gust of wind. Also, there doesn't seem
to be enough weight on the hitch. A neighbor has a drive on trailer for his
pontoon with the wheels under the pontoons and he routinely takes the rig
out of state behind his big motor home with no problems.
