[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 339522, member: 1523"] The Riverpro brings up a couple good points. I'm not too concerned about the shallowest running hull, more about a hull that will hole shot and come off plane without digging holes in the water. The I/B's seem to handle better with the engine more mid mounted vs. an O/B with the engine hanging off the rear. I noticed a huge difference in how my hull handled once I installed the pods beside the pump. I had a chance to talk to Kevin Turner about my Seadoo conversion before executing it and he had some good advice. He was doing them in the '90's and the conversions are what became Riverpro. I still think a 1448 with stick steer would work best on that water. My 1448 that's stretched to a 17'6" x 48" is a great 2 place bass fisher but will fish three for cats comfortably. [/QUOTE]
