Longer the hull the more power u can use. I new the land manager years ago for Miami that ran a 20' 48'' bottom with tunnel and up and down rapid jack 11'' offset with a unlimited Merc mod vp (Way over200hp).Had sum way managed to get 200 hp calon on it. Had to move steering about 5 foot off the front of boat. Speed was unlimited.I'm sure that this way more than u want but if I wanted one; the longer will plane out much quicker and manuver better also. Ice runner would be a must for many reasons: help with turning at high speeds and protect the bottom sum what. Good luck they can be alot fun . Diffently invest in a good push pole.
