I am looking at a starcraft 17 ft deep V tiller with a 50 hp merc 4 stroke.
Is that motor big enough for that boat?
I cant find any specs for max hp for the boat.
Anyone else run something similiar and could give some insight.
Thanks

The max HP rating on my Lund 1660 Pro-v is 60hp. I have a 50 hp Yamaha four stroke and top out at 34 mph with 22 gallons of gas me and three batteries. Add a 200 lb'r sitting in the middle and it's 30-32 mph.

dont know if this helps,but i have a lund rebel 1650 console with a yamaha 40hp 4-stroke,and with me and my eq. in the boat i can run between 31-34mph. my dad won a jack plate from yamaha,i traded it for a ladder he wanted and stuck it on there. looks cool,but just gave me about 2mph gain.
