should do it. Thank erebus, not me
I vote that it should be a sticky- the Bracket Pros / Cons thread...
I think a 150 4 stroke is pretty heavy for that boat. (I have no bracket.) I have a 375 lb Yamaha F100 and a 58 lb Tohatsu kicker on the transom. With batteries forward, tank forward, no T-Top, no baitwell, no leaning post, it JUST self bails. With 4 blade stern lifter prop and hydro-shield flying wing, the planing speed is good- 13-14 mph, and no trim tabs needed.
If you fish in the Northeast, a lighter motor and original floor height are what I recommend. You can't use the speed, and you don't want to flip out of the boat- the high cap on the MA is nice that way- don't give it up by stuffing 2x4s under the deck.
From what I can tell with the way the Floridians talk on the board, all the water around Florida is like a mud puddle in a high school gymnasium. Flat with a sandy bottom.
At least they can air it out from time to time. Twice I have gotten my 20 MA entirely out of the water at 5 knots or less. And once was 4 miles offshore- the other was the mouth of the Merrimack. High gunwales keep all the contents of your tackle box in the boat when you finally come crashing down
