 what to expect ?
What kind of changes should I expect as far as performance goes if I was to go from a 16/48 rivet lowe to a 14/48 welded boat ? I drive a 29 kawasaki

 Re: what to expect ?
What about going over mud and reeds. Would it be better to go skinnier with a the 14 foot ?

Might run better on top end if you can keep it in the water!! It will come out the hole slower!! You gonna need to put as much weight in the front as you can!!

 Re: what to expect ?
I wish I could I just don't have the money I'm going to school and working. I'm just trying to get something that will hold up before duck season because my motor is taring my transom up on the 16

 Re: what to expect ?
Hard to say, is it a mod-v or true flat?

 Re: what to expect ?
true flat, If you can get a slickbottom (no "v's") in the bottom its even better.
Long and narrow runs best in mud and veggies
