I just bought a new boat and godevil. It is a weldcraft 1442 with a 16hp long tail godevil. Is anyone here running anything similar? Trying to get some speed ideas. Not looking to go fast and I will be in mostly grass and not a lot of mud.

It will take some getting use to but will be fine.

If you can't walk around in a 42" boat, you must have some serious balance issues.

Me and a friend can stand and fish/walk around in a 14x32, it can be tippy but you just have to watch what the other person is doing.

Finished rigging it out today and went run it. Ran 16.5 Gps by myself not loaded down. About what I expected. The RPM's were only 3050. I called GoDevil and talked with Warren Coco. He explained to me over the phone how to adjust my Governor. I adjusted it to Run 4000RPM's without a load and will run it tomorow and see if I get anymore RPM's in the water out of it. If not, I drive to GoDevil tomorow and have them adjust my prop so it turns closer to 3600Rpm's with a load. Very pleassed.
