 Need advice on current rigGot a 1436 Cajun Special with a Yamaha 20 OB, and Im in need of a mud motor. The boat sits a bit low in the back with the 115# Yamaha, so I know I need a lightwieght motor but I also want some speed and power. I do realize I will have to sacrifice one way or the other. My research so far has led me to the 18hp Copperhead which wieghs about 135#.
If anyone has experienced this sort of issue your advice is greatly appreciated. thanks. |

Re: Need advice on current rig You should just build up the transom so you can hang a good 23hp on the back...
