[QUOTE="momule, post: 417103, member: 20155"] I totally agree with you on the HP limit tags. My 1448 has a plate that specifies 25hp but that is with the original hull. Since the transom has been replaced and hugely strengthened, the motor is remotely steered instead of tiller, and it will soon have flotation pods on the stern, that 25hp limit means nothing. Unfortunately, with the tag on there the state water patrol guys can still issue me a citation for being overpowered. Seems to me that the best thing to do is remove the tag? I'd be interested in filling the boat up with water (carefully of course) to see how effective the flotation currently is. [/QUOTE]
