60 at the pump or powerhead?? My buddy just ordered a 1652 Blazer SS with a 90/65 and it wasn't a problem.

2015 1752 Blazer SS 1993 Yamaha 115 Pro-V with new pump 1993 Trailboss trailer modified to fit the Blazer 2008 Motorguide 82lb. digital trolling motor.

In March we bought a "naked" .100 ga. 1752ss with 27 inch transom, two transom braces, long diamond plate corners, diamond plate front, and console with storage box/livewell for just a tad under $4,000. I realize this wasn't the boat you asked about but figured it may give you a ball park idea.

I'd recommend running up river. There is lots of good water between there and 30. Also, it will be easier to read the water running upstream; especially for guys who are learning or re-learning the capabilities of their boats and how to read the river. You can run down from River Round, but...

It depends on the particular river that you're planning on running the most. In our area rivers which are predominately gravel bottomed, the guys who run Current river seem to prefer 1848 and 1852 .080 gauge boat powered by some make of a 60/40. A lot of guys who don't run the HP restricted...

Boat: 1997 1650AW Alumacraft (All-welded) with side console, and side mounted timed aerated livewell with additional recirculator pump, trolling motor bracket with trolling motor plug and 8 gauge wiring, Garmin 240 fish finder with trolling motor transducer, 12 gallon fuel tank and a Paula...

Ran a 25hp Mercury on both an 1836 Alumaweld (pre- Xpress) and a 1448 Alumacraft. Both were rigged with a 12 volt trolling motor, battery, 6 gallon fuel cell and a small deck on the bow. Both ran fine with just me and my gear in the boat. When another person and their gear was added to the...

Actually, it was a blessing. The boat was running right beside us for roughly 500 feet before veering off the road and into the ditch. It was getting enough air underneath the front of the boat so it looked like it was getting pulled by an invisible truck. We were traveling south toward Vichy...

Had a little mishap coming home from a tournament one day. Pucker factor was pretty high for a few seconds, but fortunately nothing or no one was hurt. Welded trailer back together with bracing on inside and outside of break, re-wired trailer, had cover repaired, and was back on the river the...

Choosing between the Mercury and Yamaha I would, without a doubt, go with the Mercury. I am a Yamaha guy but Mercury has those 60/40s dialed in. I have a couple of friends with them and they love them.

Try taking one shim out. Had the same problem back in May when I put a new liner in our jet. It would run on the hose, but wouldn't turn over in the water. Switched one shim washer and it was fine.

Strength hands down. An old friend and river rat once told me, "speed don't matter, you can only fish one hole at a time anyhow". Of course it was kind of tongue and cheek and he had one of the fastest boats (a Riverpro) on the the river.

Though not an ideal set up I "think" that it could be done. My concern would be the weight of the boat (it looks HEAVY) and the steep deadrise of the transom. Not sure where you are located, but a knowledgable outboard jet dealer could probably give you more information. I'm a little partial...

As rude said, the stainless impellers are definitely worth the money. Though I noticed very little difference in speed, the hole shot was significant and the durability compared to aluminum impellers is not even comparable. We've ran a stainless impeller in our 90/65 Yamaha since 2000 and it...

doubt you need one. Most guys that I know who use transom savers have big heavy jets-over 200 hp.

Will run better than a 25 hp prop engine.

A guy I fish with often has a 1652 Alumaweld (pre-Xpress) with a 50/35 Yamaha jet. He purchased the rig new in 1989. The boat is pretty basic; regular console, 4 foot front deck, center bench seat that contains livewell and a storage compartment, and 24" wide back bench that is wide enough to...

I ran a 1985 70/50 Yamaha on our 1650AW Alumacraft for the first three years we owned it. It did fine. Got on plane easy and top speed was around 30 with two people, gear, and 12 gallons of fuel. I have no experience with tunnel hull boats.

If Seth doesn't see this thread, you might message him. I think he some really efficient lighting system on his boat.
