My buddy has a big block longtail on his that size and they weigh more. I'd say you're safe as long as sides arnt too low

 Re: 25 gatortail on36 boat?
^^ haha there should be a disclaimer at the bottom of every post you make regarding small hulls with heavy motors. It should read something like "let it be known that the aforementioned information is referring to a motor/hull combination that wound up on the bottom of not one, but two bodies of water"

Had a 16/36 Welbuilt with a 25GTR. Stock this thing would flat out run. Scared the hell out me though, the guys called it Lil' Peppe. It would run with the 35's .

Tall. The draft depended on what side of the was up or down!  IMG_7634.JPG Probably about 6" to 7"
