[QUOTE="handyandy, post: 447797, member: 18942"] a 90/65 would be awful heavy for that hull I think. That thing isn't a heavy gauge hull he won't be winning races but it should get on plane without too much issue it won't leap on plane, but it would probably do just fine. I think those grizzly hulls are only .090 or .100 and with no inner sides, floor, or bunch of add on stuff his boat is pretty light probably much lighter than my 1554 .125 hull. Granted I had a 2 stroke 60/40 but it did fine with it. As long as he isn't expecting huge speed it will probably be fine. If you put the wife, kid, and some gear in it it will be slow to plane out but I imagine it will work. I'd bet he will run 27mph or so average maybe a little faster if loaded light and alone.
