[QUOTE="Tallpine, post: 378921, member: 14989"] I used to have a 12' Valco with a 69 9.9 Johnson. I moved along pretty good with 2 people and gear. Also had a 13' Valco with a 89 15hp Johnson. It was a screamer with 2 people. That late 60's Johnson was a great motor with lots of torque and got up on plane pretty quick. I wanted to add that I bought the boat new in 86 with a 6hp Evinrude. It ran O.K. but was underpowered. The 9.9 seemed to be the perfect balance between weight and power. [/QUOTE]
