Alumacraft Trophy

[Fish Catcher Jim]

Wondering if any one in here is running either a 175 or 185 alumacraft Trophy?
Thanks

Lots of questions lol.
Found it's better to ask those who have one then those that don't, at least in another forum where you know more before you read the answers.

I don't have one but there are many on here who could provide input if they knew what the question was. How long have you owned it?

My uncle had a 175, 1998 ?? I think, now my cousin has it, fished in it a half dozen times.

I don't own one yet.
We are looking at different options as we are looking to purchase a winnebago revel and even though they have a 5000 lb hitch - Sprinter says no way.
They claim max is about 4300.

We have switched gears to looking at smaller lighter boats such as the 175 trophy.

Want to know how they run with the min hp up to max.

Speed is no concern so max is not important.

Few guys said they ran a 9.9 kicker and the 17 didn't like it. Once removed they claim the boat ran great.

Just a few to start with.

What hp did they run and how did the boat handle?

How many people can fish comfortably?
