that boat will work, though you will draft deeper than a mud boat. transom height 16" or 21" matters when buying motor. 23 hp expect 17 to 18 mph with that boat dry with the 9x5 prop.

don't need a mud boat unless you're going in mud.

Yep, if you stay in the outboard boat lanes you'll be fine.

Any time the hull hits something ( stumps, logs, rocks, who knows what) you will cuss yourself for not having a slick bottom.
If you don't have the money it is a temporary fix that will run OK.

Last night I got an 11 hp LT in a trade and I have a little 14/36 rivited to put it on that should give me an Idea about what I want but I think the new motor and welded boat will be fine for me If I decide to I can get a SD and a smooth bottom later on nothing wrong with multiple shallow water boats one for every occation I have prop boats and jet skis nothing fancy just like watercraft
