That 150 you have is a perfect power to weight ratio if you shift a little weight forwards. My console is 6" forwards with 2 batteries under the seat. I added 20 gallons of fuel capacity by adding 2' to the front of the tank coffin.
Even with the added forward weight, the scuppers are still a little submerged. That being said, I know my transom is soaked and the "aluminum plate transom job" probably adds 25lbs.
I'm pretty sure it will self bail with a new transom. I'm still going to raise the deck 3" though..
