Wow, 120 lbs? And how much more $$$$$ for the $60? This boat wasn't built to be a speed demon. Can't ask for a better boat to fish from for muskies, though.

There is one guide I know that had a Merc 60 4 stroke on his. He really only needed about a 30 or 40, as I don't think he's EVER gone WOT with that 60! [:bigsmile:]

Unless the 60 Suzzie has EFI vs carbs for the 50, I think I'd go with the 50. The extra 10 HP will be offset by the extra weight, I believe. Plus the 50 should cost a little less.

Hope this helps.

Good luck,

Shep
