Location: W-PA | Anybody running a 2008 Crestliner 1850 Fishhawk dual console with a 115 Mercury Four stroke? Found a good deal on one that has been well taken care of. I really like the layout but concerned with the 115. I would prefer to have the max hp, but this isn't that heavy of a hull and I see quite a bit of deep v's running the 115s. Any ideas or opinions.

Location: Hayward, WI | They do OK with a 115, might hit 41-42 with a light load. Allot of people get wrapped up in maxxing out HP. I have a 1750 Fishhawk with a 90 and it can take up to a 125, and I am happy with it. You just have to have to know what you are getting and be ok with that. |

| My brother has a 2001 1850 Fishhawk single console with a 115 Suzuki 4-stroke. It gets up on plane quickly and top speed is 42-44 depending on load. Nice boat and motor, both work as good as new. |

| propped right and with a light load it'll do low 40's. I have an 1850 DC w/ a Honda 135. Original prop and I do 44 on the GPS loaded by myself.
Honestly, you're not going to win any races with one maxed out. Good deals on fishhawks don't come very often. I'd pick it up, take the money you saved with the deal, and set it up with the right electronics. That boat is an absolutely blast to fish out of and you won't regret it.
