Thanks guys, I checked the weights.
9.9 hp four stroke 87lbs
6 hp four stroke 57 lbs
In my area 14’er’s hard to find.
Thanks again for your help and response.
I have a 12’ aluminum V hull. I have a 9.9 four stroke. Being a senior in my 70’s I find the motor heavy. The boat is rated for a 5-7.5 hp. Thinking of down sizing to a Mercury 6 hp. Fishing in a lake not far to my fishing spots. Should I be ok with that size motor.
Thanks
Bryan.
Forgot to mention the year of the boat, likely in the early 70’s. the boat is very solid no leaks. Most of the time the wife and I. Just wanted to feel comfortable getting the 9.9.
Thanks again for all comments.

I have a 12’ aluminum boat. In excellent condition. As of now I have a 2015 mercury 5hp four stroke. I looked at the plate at the back and motor size 5 - 7hp. Would I be over doing it with a 9.9hp. It’s V shape on the front. I think I could plane
Yes I have lots of room. Just thought there may be a box out there that one may use. It will be placed on the opposite side of my 30lb minn koto.
Thanks for the reply,
Bryan
Not sure where to post this question.
I just purchased a UB12350 Battery for my Kayak. Just wondering if there is someone out there that used a container to use for a battery this size.
Thanks,
Bryan.
