[QUOTE="dhoganjr, post: 454279, member: 12925"] Great setup in my opinion. The wider the bottom the better it can handle weight. It will draft maybe an inch or so deeper than a 115/80. That 150 will be about 105 at the pump. It doesn't sound like much difference in hp but the extra torque carries a load much better and hops on plane in a boat length. Should run in the low 40's. Best thing is you can cruise at lower rpms which saves a lot of fuel and have power on reserve for when you need it. A wide bottom with enough horsepower will run shallower than smaller boats.
