Hello,
I purchased a pontoon with 20' tubes and 30" diameter, the deck is 14' x 8' the total weight now with the 25 Merc is 1200# but I really want to get a new four stroke about 40 hp and I am sort of leaning towards a Yamaha jet for river fishing. What determines the hp of the motor I can put on this and I do not ski or water sport. I am mainly concerned with fighting the current. I enclosed a picture of the transom which is adjustable with a lever. If I calculated it right the log is 98 cuft with a weight of 6106#
Thanks.
