i am building a 13 hp LT and i am thinking of using the tracker topper jon boat im just not sure whether to use the 12 foot model or the 14 foot one the 12 has a 46 beam with a 32 inch bottom the 14 foot has a 53 beam with a 36 inch bottom the difference in wait is only 8 pounds so just curious for handling and speed which one would be better... anything would help preciate it guys |
