[QUOTE="jarobi, post: 153307, member: 3318"] That 25 HP will warp the crap out of your transom over time, open up existing cracks, and create some new ones. I had a '73 lowe 1636 with a 25 hp Johnson, so I learned this from experience. It [i]is[/i] cool to blow by an underpowered Lund or two in a hillbilly rig though:). If you keep your boat with that motor I'd recommend a new transom along with some reinforcement. Look at what River Rider did: https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=10457 He added an extra brace & a stud of a transom. The very boat I had. Now I have a '93 1648 Landau. [/QUOTE]
