[QUOTE="Calman, post: 861494, member: 3341"] Hook,I've always been told that no mater what size engine you use on a boat it will go only as fast as the hull was designed to go.I put this to the test several years ago by putting a 160 outboard on a 14 ft glastron boat. Now you want to talk about being squirlly, at a high speed the front end would raise up and start going side to side slapping the top of the water. And when I would power up from a dead stop the prop wanted to come out of the water and it would turn the boat up on its side.I never was able to go full throttle. Didn't take me long to downsize on the motor.I wound up with an 85 omc on it and it worked pretty good. :lol: Cal [/QUOTE]
