So i picked up a 1978 Valco 14" it is rated for a 20HP motor and the transom is 15". I am looking at a new 9.9 probably Tohatsu. That motor weighs 95lbs. Am i going to be ok with that weight? The boat will be used both lake and inland salt water.
Thanks
 
Older 20hp evinrude weighs 100-120 depending on the year and if it has electric start. 20 hp tohatsu short shaft will weigh same as that 9.9
