 Re: NEED HELP does any one know about weldbuilt
Well, If you purchase a 35+ HP MudMotor, then you wont have a problem running with 3-4 guys. Though, you will only be looking at speeds of 23-26MPH. If ou have a 70hp outboard, then you will exceed 40mph.
Hope This Helps

Prodrive, Gatortail, or GoDevil are good brands. just look at their websites and see what motor and features best suits your needs!
