Re: would a 2.5hp kicker be enough on a FS17
I had a 3.5 kicker on my GW tournament 19, which is a relatively heavy boat. I just happened to have the motor and the boat just happened to have a bracket. It did get me home once when I thought I had run out of 2-smoke oil, and I did use it for some 2 knot trolling. Like FG said, it clogged a lot,...

Re: 1984 Grady White Overnighter 20 - Transom Rebuild
This is a good "from the back" replacement. I know you said that wasn't your preference, but unless you are completely paralyzed by competing options, you're not properly in the spirit of boat-building. :lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUxeTQ325U0&list=PLDFOb030syP54VqPsBAmYtBj32S...

Re: No Excuse
Man, tough choice! Lower weight + Tee top or heavier without........ 1/4 mile, I'll favor the light boat. I dont think the wind resistance will have time to play a role.
