[QUOTE="jethro, post: 502950, member: 12381"] Personally I'd get a smaller motor. 12 foot jon boats are usually rated to 5 or 10 hp max. 20 Horse is way too big. Not only are you gonna whip yourself out of that thing, you may damage the hull. If you do use that 20 horse motor PLEASE PROMISE you will use an emergency kill tether at all times becasue you will be ejected from that boat at some point. It's not a matter of if, but when.
