hey guys just wanted to introduce myself my name is paul. Tomorrow i am getting my first boat a 16' sea Nymph and Trailer i picked up for $400. I have a motor as of now but im not sure its going to work its a 25HP Evenrude. Im just not sure if its too big for the boat. I will have pictures posted tomorrow. I am very excited after searching on this site for the past few days. Future plans will be to deck it, add some storage, and a livewell if possible.

its not liking my normal photobucket pictures due to being over 800 pixels wide. so links only sorry
 
The boat should have a capacity plaque on the stern, if it's an open boat, that will list the max horsepower it's rated for. My Ouachita 16DSV is rated for 30 HP.

and im still going over it but it looks like max hp is 15 but not 100% sure yet still going through it all.
also is there a way to post pictures on here more than 800 pixels wide? i cant even post pictures from my phone because thats so small lol. i even resized them on photobucket to 640x480 and it still is giving me that message?
 
well getting some work done today on it, im going to be redoing all the wiring, and adding a few little things.
 
Not exactly sure...so don't quote me on it. A picture can't be over 2mb in size. So what I do is open the picture in paint and reduce the size until its under 2mb.
