[QUOTE="handyandy, post: 478057, member: 18942"] I wouldn't advise a 40/30 and 1652 for four guys, two guys it's fine, but if you go out with four with any regularity you will be disappointed. Honestly if you want to go with four guys sometimes and by yourself at times an 1852 and 60/40 is a good combo. Not too big to handle on your own, will get up and go 30mph or just over with you loaded light, it will work with four guys in it probably still do around 24mph with four guys in it. The 1852 will plane out a heavier load quicker than a 1652 with the same motor cause is displaces more water and will draft less. The weight savings of the 40/30 and 1652 will be negligible. There is a reason 1852's with a60/40 are so popular in mo, the hp restrictions on rivers dictate 40hp engines must be used, and a light 1852 blazer or alweld or whatever make works well with a 60/40. It's big enough for few people and moves with a 60/40 as good as anything can with a 60/40. A 1752 or 1652 with a 60/40 when loaded light and just one guy will be marginally faster on top, but once loaded up the 1852 planes out easier and up top with a load they run about the same 1652 vs 1852 that is with the same engine.
