[QUOTE="Billy H, post: 513267, member: 34877"] I own a crestliner storm. Picture in my avatar. I can say without a doubt a 20 HP gas motor will put you on plane. I get 25MPH with a 20 merc EFI when alone. As far as electric motor I can’t comment. I will say that I use a 24 volt Terrova very extensively while fishing and it pulls the boat around just fine for many hours. I recently switched over to lithium batteries. As far as electronics I recommend Garmin. I have a 106 ultra on the bow and a 93 SV UHD at the console. If your dead set on built in transducer I would get the Garmin/ forceTM to get the most out of your head unit. That TM is my next purchase. For now I’m running a GT 54 transducer along with an LVS 32 on the minn kota and a GT 56 on the transom. I set up a 50 AH lithium in my front compartment along with an on off switch exclusively for my electronics. Also have my GLS 10 in there. You’ll love that boat. It’s a great fishing platform. I can send a video to you if you like. Any questions let me know. [/QUOTE]
