Just make sure you have good wood in the transom and not rotten. If it is then replace it. Other than that it seems you should be good to go. Common sense prevails and all engines have throttles on them. A larger engine can be throttled back to a comfortable quiet cruise speed vs a smaller engine screaming at WOT to maintain the same required speed.</p></blockquote><p></p>
