| That Tuffy 1760 is no sled, no pun intended. It gets up on plane easily with the 75. Cory Painter had his out on Michigan several years ago for the SalmonFirst Wolfpack outing. There was no issue getting on plane, even with 3 in the boat. I've seen a couple 1760 tillers on Bago over the years. One white one with a Johnson 4 stroke? was out quite a bit. Pretty sure it was not a 90. I don't think you'd be disappointed with the rated 75. The CG rating does say Max Recommended HP, though I'm not sure how that unfolds with insurance and the CG itself.
All the Lund 1700's have a 75 HP rating for the tillers. 90 HP for the 1800's. As I said, perhaps Painter wil show up and offer his experiences with his 75HP.
Also, bear in mind that Cory's is a 75 2-stroke, and I believe the 2-strokes outperform most 4 strokes in that size range. Just my opinion, though.
