15 hp donk - Wow!

Looks like a very good buy. Motor is far too big though. My 5 hp runs on low throttle most of the time, and with a 15 hp you would be struggling to control the boat in tight manoevering situations. Plus you have all that weight in the wrong place. Easy to trade down, and makes the boat an even better deal. Maybe I should become a collector...

I just want the trailer, boat sits nice and low, my boat sits way too high and is a pain to launch and as a result doesnt get used as much as it should.

Hi guys!
i just got here and have been reading all the postings this boat is now all mine !!
got her for very low cost
yes the out board is big only done 20 hr so still new
the guy who sold it told me said it was up in mackay and the out going river is very strong up there ?
