Kicker power versus weight on a Master Angler 20

[Bigshrimpin]

thats my point - the boat can't handle 500+ lbs plus somebody sitting back there driving - buy a good VHF radio and a Sea Tow membership or you need a bigger boat

Don't forget flippers and water wings. If you break down in Buzzards Bay in the SW afternoon wind with a 20" transom and a heavy motor . . . You'll be calling the coast guard before seatow arrives.
