I have a 54 x 16 semi v all weld boat and want to put mud motor on it. Travel up to 10 miles to hunt in river and open water, but have lots of shallow water to cross. Any suggestions? Thanks, Capt. Mike |

Before I purchased an engine, spoke to different manufactures and vendors, none of them recommend a V bottom boat. You need to got and test them all. If you want reverse, either PD or GT. |

I know a guy with a 35hp Gaytortail on a boat pretty close to yours & it does just fine. |

I have a 16x52 Lowe w/ a 35 MB it is not a speed demon and the hull is not the strongest but gets the job done for right know. Here is the link to my review. viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4596 |

Mike if its got a slick bottom and goes back to a shallow v or flat it will do fine. It can't have any hook or V crimps on the bottom. You will want a longer SD like the gd. I would want to bolt one on a do a test drive on your boat. JD |
