[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 362393, member: 13702"] Absolutely wrong - the coast guard rating system is a function of length and width adjusted for the bottom design of the boat, the height of the transom and/or the steering layout (remote vs. tiller) You could have a rotted log for a transom by design that wouldn't support an electric trolling motor and so long as the boat was long and wide enough it could be rated for 300hp.
