Thanks for the video. I have a suntracker bass buggy 16' DLX with 24" pontoons. I will shortly install underskin then maybe do a 40hp to 60hp swap. I get 19mph on GPS with 40hp. What did you get with your smaller motor? I hope to get to 30 mph, but don't think I will. What I REALLY want is to just cruise at 20mph because I'm not too big on speed. I got decent pontoons 24', but it weighs like 1100 lbs. People ask why on the forums, but lots of reasons. I like smaller boats to store in my side yard, I can only tow so much with VW Tiguan and 2.0 engine. The Bass Buggy is only 7ft wide and I really like it.
Nice

I went online to purchase this size pontoon and it comes with a 40hp did you do the 60 by yourself or did you buy the set up like that

Yes I built a stronger Transom for the boat that would hold a 60HP.
That’s awesome thanks!
I have the Brocraft rod holders on my toon.
make and model of the boat
it is a 2015 Paddle King Lo Pro Cruiser model Pontoon boat. 15ft
What prop size are you running on this?
4 blade 13pitch. I have tried a lot of other ones, this seemed to work the best for this set up.
