Yep. It's a shallow v bass boat. No pad. I know it's not going to break any records. Just trying to figure this **** out and the how's and why's

**71V153** · 11-08-2017, 05:42 PM

Well that helps a little. Camera broke?

Thanks for the update. Silly me I assumed it was a performance hull. Hard to tell without pictures ...

All things considered I'd recommend a Raker. Think they're 13 1/2 diameter and come in even numbers. 20 is what you want.

Ok I found one in a 19 for cheap local and a prop shop has an old trade in in 20 he might let me have for trade in fabrication work. So I'll get them both and see.

If'n ya really wanna wake that motor up a lil bit. Shop around for some hi comp heads from a 140. Then pull the intake and install the 140 reed stuffers. And while yer in there install Carson reeds.

Got to ask, is it a 60 degree or a 90, 115?

Good question. I'm bettin a crossflow ...

I recently acquired a '96 112 SPL (poor mans 115 ...) that ate a ring in #1. When pullin it apart I was shocked that it didn't have hi comp heads or reed stuffers.

Its called multi tasking, plus a 150 with a title here is worth more than the 350 price to me

Well I would go here BUT some folks here on this site don't care about a f*** what the truth is and seem they are the masters at nothing so lets put it at that
