Thanks Moe. Long story short.. I've got other toys that go fast, I'm wondering what size OB I need to go 20 knots with 800 lbs of humans onboard.

I used the word "hurry" too much, but what the he$%, you get the point.

I'm quite sure I'm going to buy a 2000X next week. It comes with a smaller 2 stroke. Nothing against 2 strokes, I'm just a four stroke person. Since I'm going to sell the "2", how big of "4" should I get? I'm going to do an equal amount of sailing vs. motoring. I'm going to use t...

I'm still searching for my first "Mac". I'm a pretty competetive guy. I was actually looking forward to getting a sailboat to relax a bit. After reading posts from all over this forum, I've learned a few things about sailors. (I've never even been on a sailboat). I'm going to fit right in ...

I will use the power aspect of it a fair amount. My wife will sail it more often than I, so I'm goin...

Due to unit conversion, now flying the KC135. Oh well. To clarify my post last night, this will be our learning boat. I really appreciate a...

I'll try to make a long story kind of short. I've been surfing a lot of web sites and this one seems to have the best bunch of posters by far. Here I go....... I don't think this will be as short as you'd all like. I'm 45 and my wonderful wife is 48. We live in Sioux City, Iowa, not exactly the sail...
