shawnfish » Yesterday, 11:13[/url]"]im way off base here but seeing the magnet stick to that prop surprised me because I always thought SS props were made of austenitic SS like 304 or 316 for corrosion resistance. not that other grades don't resist corrosion I just figured they used the highest grade.

erictetterton » Today, 15:35[/url]"]What do y'all think about putting a 20or 25hp on my setup? She's rated for a 15 and its got the flotation pods. Do u think it would be too much?

I agree with johnny25 100%....

now I have this to add....the flotation pods provide enough square footage of foam to keep your boat(even if filled with water) floating provided you do not have more total weight than the max weight capacity listed on the coast guard tag on your boat

as long as your transom is solid and the brace or braces are also solid I say go as big as you want as long as you feel safe by doing so...that said remember if you have people with you in the boat when you use it you have their safety to consider also.....
