[QUOTE="Schicken, post: 346742, member: 13796"] I bought a 10 footer last year. With two people (340lbs) a trolling motor, 24 series battery, a six can cooler (for the worms or fish if we kept any) and a tackle bag with 3 360 stowaways we were pretty much overloaded. If you add an outboard, gas tank and live well you would add a lot weight. Each gallon of gas or water (livewell) adds 8 pounds and that adds up quickly. I would keep the gas tank as small as possible, a couple gallons should be fine with the size outboard you are talking about. If you add a live well I might consider using ice in there instead of water. [/QUOTE]
