will a 27hp motor push a 1644 GT guide w/huntdeck? Not sure what brand motor im going with yet but I really like this style boat. Also looking hard at the Rouge b/c I hunt by myself or at most 1 other guy and I need a narrow boat for the timber I hunt.

I think it should work fine.

get a 27hp pro-drive

Thanks guys. Im having a hard time choosing b/t a 1638Rouge and a 1644. Both will have a hunt deck and gun box. I like the rouge because I hunt timber, if I move to Alabama and take this job then I will be living 5 minutes from a river and about 30minute-1 hour from a couple big lakes. I dont plan on hunting those lakes but I would like to be able to go out and play on them in the mud and grass etc.... Yall think a Rouge will be ok for that or should I spend the extra and get a 1644? I know it comes down to personal preference but I cant decide which would be best. There isnt that much diff width wise in the two to amount to much in the timber, but the price could be a life savor. Here are the options I want on the boats,


1644 Guide:
-hunt deck
-hydro turf
-spotlight kit
-extended deck
-drivers seat pod w/ storage
-gun box
- Trailer



1638Rouge
-Hunt deck
-Hydro turf
-gun box
-spot light kit
-reciever hitch or wich plate
-trailer
