[QUOTE="kofkorn, post: 393586, member: 7076"] I've been really impressed with the power of this motor compared to the weight. It actually runs faster with the extra weight in the bow to get it down. I honestly think a big part of it is the boat itself, it's really lightweight, maybe 100lbs total. Love it SDGUY! :) I'm actually more of a JohnnyRude guy myself, but only because that's what I've got more experience with. The Mercs don't seem to be available as often at the prices that I'm looking for. Oh well. I think for the long term, the part availability will win out. I'm putting an ad up for this one now. Thanks guys! [/QUOTE]
