I'm running one on a 1748 .125... Runs good with 1 or 2 man load at 25 mph. Put a third man in it or load it down with gear and it drops off pretty bad. 3 men with with a generator and lights or won't hardley hold 15. Good motor in my opinion would run better on a smaller boat.

Had 4 people on there the other night and got on plane fairly easy for that load with no gear and were doing probably around 15-17 mph

I knew a guy that had one that the belt housing cracked on it. But that was probably luck of the draw. Never really heard that it was a problem with these motors.

I like that they are light. I was considering getting one over a go devil because I heard they are better in thick grass and Lillie's.
