I have a few weeks off work(I'm having a knee replaced) so While I'm waiting I decided to redo my rig. Here's the old.
I use it for fishing and I'm now running an 18 hp Briggs Commercial. It has a 42" prop. It's a 6x16 and it will plane.
I'm getting ready to move up to 35 hp and a 52" prop. I'm building to use that setup but will use my current motor and prop for the rest of the season. My question is how much more bracing do you think I need? Of course it is not done now but I only plane to put a few in the bottom of the stand for the gas tank and battery.. Think once I get all those in it will be ok? I'm trying to keep the weight down. I'm already lighter once completed, the old setup weighed a ton.
Thanks in advance, papee
