What do you plan to do with the boat and where are you?
Around here, NC, lot of people that like to fish the gulfstream prefer twins because you always have one to get home with. As well as running the inlets, if you lose one you're not in trouble.

Will a Suzuki 250 be enough get up and go or will a pair of 150s be necessary? I think 3700 is pretty light for a 25' CC compared to a Grady or Mako. Thoughts? My piggy bank would like to say single. Thanks, Lance I have a good friend with a Judge 28'. He has a Honda 90 4-stroke on the back. It trolls nicely. Top speed is around 27mph. It takes a while to get on plane, but it will - eventually. It's all in how fast you want to go. Harry has 150hp on a 21' CC that is, according to him, pretty heavy. He's very pleased with it. The dry weight of my boat is either 2950 or 3000 pounds. I suspect the latter is with the molded in front seats, which I did not get. The 150 is terrific.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - All in all, I don't think anyone can other than guess until this guy tells us what make and model so we have an idea of hull configuration. |
