Does anyone know if it is ok to add a kicker motor to a tuffy esox ltd...mine has a 50 horse on it now, but I fish on shabbona alot and have to use my electric to get around...if this is possible would 5hp be enough to get this boat moving, or do I need more hp?...I haven't ever seen one of these boats with a kicker on it so I thought I would ask...thanks for the input!

5HP would move it along pretty well.

I have used a 5hp on my Esox Magnum and it works just fine. I think I got up to 6mph, but I don't remember for sure.
