[QUOTE="jsmoody, post: 418044, member: 15256"] Good info thanks. So considering that i guess i need to be somewhere between an 1860 and a 2070. I dont much want anything bigger than that, and would prefer to stay closer to 18 feet if possible. Ive got a local boat builder i would really like to work with on it and he builds some really big and wide flats for oyster barges and such but i will need to try and trim the fat somewhere. I think his are typically out of .190 My initial thought is to try and find a 150-200 2 stroke and swap the foot on it. Theres no hp restrictions i need to worry with. Would a 150 push the 20 footer? Lots of these motors around here in the deep south. [/QUOTE]
