[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 266986, member: 5461"] Most state boating regulations require you to operate your watercraft according to all manufacturers guidelines. Most states also require you to list the HP of motor on your registration, and won't issue a registration if your motor is overpowered. If for whatever reason an officer decides to inspect your boat, I can guarantee you he will find some law that supports you getting a fine, or worse. Just follow the law, and the manufacturers instructions and stay at or under the max. Why ask for trouble when the max HP for almost every boat out there is plenty. [/QUOTE]
