 27 GD SD , 16x44 GD original boat
Guys,
just found this site, what kinda performance should I be getting out of this rig. It does fine with 1 or 2 guys, but put 3 or 4 and i think it only does 10-11 mph. I had a 25 longtail on it for years, and don't remember it being this sensitive to load. The SD is much faster unloaded but is an absolute dog under a load. What should/ can I do?

Sounds like ya need a bigger rig all together. Carrying 4 guys in a lil 16 foot boat aint gonna run with 27 hp.
