[QUOTE="stevesecotec02, post: 345692, member: 11617"] Im 230lbs and an 8hp on a 1436 use to plane out with just me in it. Your old 9.5 is probably about even with the 8hp in power as the old motors were rated diffrently. Your boat may be waterlogged adding unecessary weight. Hard to tell from pic but if your back bench is foam filled that foam could be holding a lot of water if its older. [/QUOTE]
