Right now I am in the process of making this old motor 1975 motor run again.

https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=26928

I am wondering what is the biggest size motor I could put on this 15 foot jon boat.

I saw a jon boat about the same size as mine with a 40hp motor on it.

I've rebuilt the transom and kept the huge steel plate that Wayne put on the transom as well.

Just thinking out loud.

I have a 1987 16 ft MonArk MOD-v with a 20HP Johnson and it runs fair. The boat is rated for a 45HP Max. if that is any help.
 
wish I could find the HP rating on this old boat, but there is not information out there.
