Hey I am sitting here contemplating what size motor goes on what size boat. I am currently in the process of findin, rescuing, and resurecting a good ole' 14 foot aluminum boat so if you have any leads let me know. That being said, if I should happen to end up with a 12 or a 14 or a 16 what size motors can/would I want to put on them respectively. I goto Flaming Gorge quite a bit in summer, but mostly would be using the boat on Deer Creek, Jordanelle, Rock Port, and Pineview and possibly Utah lake and Yuba maybe once a year at one or the other. So seeing as how I am a rookie at fishin boats, and my wife and 5yearold kid are expecting me to be a pro, got any pointers? My main concern is finding a tiller mount motor with enough power to blaze me across the lake, but I WILL be trolling like a madman, my plan is to get a few down riggers, electronics, and I am already in posession of a lectric 22thrust LB. motor off of my float tube. Thanks in advance.
