[QUOTE="RaisedByWolves, post: 475227, member: 22989"] Something else you need to think about is its not how fast you can get to your fishing spot, but how fast you can get to the ramp when the lightening starts. The wife unit kept wondering why I wanted to go faster, even if just a few MPH for a few pennies more (I build my own motors). Well today we got hit with a sneaky storm that formed over the river that sits adjacent to the lake we fish. It looked like nothing and she wanted to video the swans with their (swanlings?) and just having turned our backs for 5min all hell started breaking loose on the river. I had the boat going flat out on calm water and every time the lightening hit in the distance she was waving me on to go faster to get at the ramp and get loaded. Seems she forgot that getting to the ramp was only the first part of the battle, then you have to get loaded and off of the aluminum dock! She now wants me to get the 35 on the boat and see what that does. I also was thinking they sold you what they wanted to sell rather than selling you what you needed. You will do fine with a 25 on that hull. **** nice looking boat too. [/QUOTE]
