[QUOTE="simbelle, post: 340711, member: 10384"] I use to fish the Indian River ( Intracoastal Waterway) with my wife in a 12" flat bottom Jon, 7.5hp 2 cycle Sears Gamefisher motor gear and cooler. Never once felt unsafe, tippy, or that it was overloaded. At that time I was going a lean mean 200lbs and my wife was a slim 140. ( I use to be young skinny and good looking.....now I'm just good looking!) My project now is a 12' 42" Vhull, and I plan either a 6hp (57lb) or if it will take it a 9.8 electric start (88 lbs): 2 people, 250 and 160, bait well, gear, gas tank Battery...dont think Ican do a TM though. I previously had a 2 cycle 15hp on it. [/QUOTE]
