Default Re: HP on a 20ft CC

The bracket moves the weight further away from the transom and unless it is a flotation bracket, i would certainly keep weight in mind, going with a lighter motor on a bracket. With a bracket, you generally pick up 5-10% more speed as the motor is back away from the boat where it gets cleaner water. I dont know of any formula for computing horsepower with a bracket.
