[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 462380, member: 22139"] If you want an idea how it will sit with the 40, put your boat in the water and put an extra 150 lbs on the back. A friend standing on the rear deck will give you an idea. If two of you can stand there and water isn't close to the top, I'd say you're golden. You can always shift some weight forward, battery, fuel. That 40 is going to have all kinds of jam over the old 35. Mostly torque, it ought to come out of the hole like it was shot from a cannon and you could probably fill the boat to full capacity and still haul. Top speed will be a bit higher, might.be able to pull a higher pitch prop, have to check rpm and see. Sent from my CLT-L04 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
