Hi, My son & I are planing on repowering a 1986 or 1987
Blue Fin S170 17' Aluminum Boat it's rated for 90 HP Max. Original motor Force 85 @ 250 LBS
WE want to repower with a
4-Stroke Yamaha F90 @ 350 LBS
Also adding a kicker/emergency motor Honda BF15 @110 LBS. If my math is right, that's an extra 210 pounds more than. Our question is
Will that be too much added weight?
We can't put BOAT in water and add 220 lbs to stern to kinda test it, because we're replacing the rotting transom & redoing the decking.
I'll try to add photos
Thanks for reading appreciate any replies
