re: How fast will it go - 15' welded boat w/ 20hp go-devil longtail?

Really? Not even get on plane? Damn. I've gotten on plane in a 15' riveted boat with 3 guys and a 10hp longtail. And not even 20mph with 2 guys? With 2 guys and a 25hp outboard, I top out around 30mph, is the longtail that less efficient?

all mud motors are terrible not just longtails. I had to put duals on my boat to carry 3/4 guys at a decent speed. Also shorter boat with mudmotor equals terrible with load. Ideal length is around 18 with a load.

Nest question, how much is the 20hp longtail worth?
I think the boat he is looking at is a good deal, and he might just get the boat and sell the go-devil and get an outboard on a jackplate. We could probably push pole/trolling motor/paddle into the really nasty bits.
