 14x4 1/2 flat go devil help
I recently bought a 14 foot monark with a 4 1/2 bottom and put a 5hp go devil on it. It work but I want more. With 2 adults and gear I get 4 mph. Thinking about putting a 10hp and changing the prop. What's y'all eqperience with this and what would be y'all recommendations on props or anything.

 Re: 14x4 1/2 flat go devil help
Its a 48" bottom. Just measured it. Guy I bought it from said it was 4 1/2 feet but that's the top.
So u think a 8x4 with a 10 hp would be worth it? Right now its a 5 hp with a 7x5 and will go through weeds and stuff but lugs out if I dobt pick the balde up.

If your frame can handle more hp get bigger. but at 10hp go with the 8x4 it will give you more power less lugging.

 Re: 14x4 1/2 flat go devil help
I'm not worried about the frame. I'm a welder so I can always beef it up. Just have to find a motor and a prop. Just have to find the funds lol. If I could find a used motor id like to put a 13 horse on it if I could.
