Any of you guys ever put a 300rude v8 on a 16 footer?
I have a fresh evinrude 300 but not much by way of a V hull around here in Colombia where I’m located. There is a 16 foot bow rider I can pick up cheap I was going to remove the upper section deck and interior and add full length stringers and a few addl layers of glass throughout the hull to rigid it up and add some weight. I will add a ballast box in the bow to counter balance that big ole V8. What else can I do to help it like that big heavy v8 guys? I was going to build my own setback bracket to raise up the engine as it’s a 25” mid. Thx in advance for any advice, rm

I am all for big power on little weight, but at some point it has great potential to get ugly. Be careful, have fun, and take lots of pictures and video to post here.
