Re: 1848 vs 2048 bateau My next will be 1848 more than likely, but if I can find a good deal on a 2048, I may go that route too. There now, is that clear as mud??

Re: 1848 vs 2048 bateau Never compared the two, but if you look around all you see and hear about is the 1848 being the most compatable fit for these motors. I am sure you can go longer and your boat will still move and perform fine, but then it cost more to build and you need a longer trailer. Maybe thats why the builders stick to 17 and 18 foot production boats.

Re: 1848 vs 2048 bateau Jason, I don't have any experience with the 48" bottom, but I was extremely suprised at how well James Averitt's 20x54 runs. of course, he has a modded PD, but I was still suprised. It doesn't seem to me like it's any slower than what a 18x54 would be. maybe the same principle applies to 48".
2 completely different chine designs... but with my 27 I saw almost identical speeds between a 16x38 round chine, and a 20x36 square chine.

Re: 1848 vs 2048 bateau Jason, crews is right on the money. The speed will be around the same with the two but the 20' boat will plane faster and step a bigger load better. Depending on how much of a load you plan on running the 20' boat might be your best bet. I can tell you that I can run 12 gallons gas, two peps, 60lbs dog, ice chest full of beer and still run around 27. Now for me that is my average big load, I may have a little more stuff in the boat while running to the camp but my speeds are still decent.
