Re: 35 lt
Have you thought about the 27. I'm running one on a 1644 Weld-Craft getting 21.5 unloaded and about 18 with 2 people and frogging gear. Personally, after looking at all the other longtail set-ups on this site, it seems from the 23 on up push about the same speeds. Looks like all you're gaining is low-end torque by raising the horsepower. I was thinking about the 35 also at the beginning but got the 27 and haven't been disappointed yet.

Re: 35 lt
Yeah, but look how skinny that hull is. They say longer and narrow is faster but dayyum, 16 x 32 or 38? You need some flotation.
