Subject: RE: Looking for input from Rebel XL owners and motor size question


Get the biggest motor you can afford. Applies to outboards and trolling motors. Weight is always an issue, but you can sometimes actually get worse mileage from a smaller motor working harder than a larger motor working comfortably, and go faster doing it.

Not that a 60 won't push it, but 15hp to the 75 a 25% increase. That's a significant amount.

Larger motor will also help resale.
