 16x54 Express / Prodrive
The 50 Yamaha on my 16X54 Express is shot. Im thinking about putting a Prodrive on the boat. Anyone have any experience with this combination. The boat has a 21" transom.

 Re: 16x54 Express / Prodrive
This is what I'm running. Works fine with a light load (28 mph), but falls off quickly as you load her up.

 Re: 16x54 Express / Prodrive
Thanks for the information. I was worried about the rear bench seat getting in the way while driving.
