I have an older 15x42 alumaweld boat with a short transom and I will be removing the 25hp mercury off of it for a sd. I'm wanting to get a new gatortail but am not sure of going with the 25 GTR EFI or the 35 GTR. I am planning on doing some transom work to beef it up for the extra weight of the sd. I am not sure whether I should get the 35 GTR and raise the transom 5" or if I should just beef up the transom and leave it at 16" and go with a 25 GTR EFI. One of my major concerns is weight in the rear of the boat, and it sitting too low in the water with the 35hp motor. I am not looking to buy another hull right now and want to run this boat until I am unable to. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

If you plan on buying another hull (16' or larger mud hull) in the near future go as big as you can afford. With your current setup a 23 copperhead would be lighter than the GTR. |
