to be worth a dang with a load longer is better because hardest thing with the 27 is gettin on plane with a shorter boat and a load so longer it is basicly the quicker you get on plane

dont go over 48 wide either due to added weight of the hull itself

I got mine on a 17x40 Scully Steve with a double bottom, middle bench and a 12 gal. gas tank.Running about 27 mph in open water and about 25.5 with 1 person.I have been through all kinda stuff with it swamp and grass and love it.Jumped a few levees with ease.

17x48 square chine was my favorite boat for the 27. Just go get a ProDrive boat and be done with it... comes painted, wired, and ready to roll.
