Re: omc cobra trolling motor
The early OMC's didn't do much in the 12V range and 32lb. was about the best until you get to the 12/24v or straight 24v. I have a 24V Silent Start 5speed (which I wouldn't trade for nothin) mounted on a 16' StarCraft SuperSport. Sometimes I gotta put her on 4 or 5 to navigate wind, even though it's a 54lb thrust.....course the the boat is a high side boat. I would guess your Javelin would need something in the 45lb thrust area to handle wind...low profile boat but heavy. I also think that a 24V motor is the only way to go for larger boats.
