Just out of curiosity, what size motor (roughly) will it take to put my 12 foot jonboat up on plane? I am considering buying a new motor in a month or two.<br /><br />I believe it is rated for a 15 hp, but that was in 1974 when motors were heavier; will that make a difference? Or does the rating have nothing to do with the weight on the transom?<br /><br />cvlngineer
