[QUOTE="baseball_guy_99, post: 198910, member: 3565"] I run a 1448 flat bottom jon. I normally just fish with me and a buddy (I'm 6'2" 240lb and he is 6'3" 250+lbs). The boat is very stable and with a back deck I think I could easily accommodate 3 big guys. With the motor that I have on there now (9.9 with 15hp carb) it will plane with 2 people and run about 15-16mph. With a 3rd person I would definitely want a bigger motor. The person I bought the boat from had a 40hp tiller on the back. Now I think that's a little large but I would think a 30-35 would work great on it with a heavier load. [/QUOTE]
