Definitely a good deal on the Opti. I'd sell it at a profit and find a lighter rig, or find a 23 to put it on. But hey, if not, then "open up the throttle, an let her eat!" It will sit funny. It will be fast. It will require moving everything but the driver forward to get her balanced right. It will be fast. It will sit funny, and you'll want to get the biggest baddest stern-lifting 19p prop, and trim-tabs (assuming you don't already have them). Don't forget to get some viddy of you doing X-Games tricks on some summer swells. Thrill seeker, baby! Enjoy! And wear a life preserver. Im guessing you'll hit close 57 mph if you can keep the pointy end down some and the motor is mounted high enough.
