Boat is a camo 1652 G3 DK, skinned out with rod box, floor, sides, ect... Empty boat weighs 640lbs... Throw in motor, batteries, 8 gallons of gas, foot controlled trolling motor, jack plate, Yeti cooler (had to throw that in for the guy who was ragging on Yeti owners), fishing gear, seats, a rod box full of BS, my big arse and the dog and its probably pushing 1300-1400 lbs easy...
This is my first four stroke and I really am liking it, just an adjustment from anything else I have ever run...
Powertech said I could get into the low thrities with a different prop, but thats not what I was looking for... My break in period will be up in another month or so and I am really looking fwd to seeing if its turning up the 6k rpm its supposed to, by the sound of it I dont think it is but again these are different animals...
Lots of torque down low, really quiet, smooth, and sips fuel but definately not a "screamer" on the top end like the two strokes are...
