I had a 150 Pro Sport widebody. I loved it....I had a 25HP Merc Four stroke on it and it went well....28-30MPH depending on the # people. I did a lot
to it. I put a casting deck on it, trolling motor, carpet seats and so on. It served me very well. I actually had a rivet leak (my fault...don't try to break through ICE with it) and it was fixed no questions asked. Don't go with anything less than a 25.
I used to take it on Nippissing and Simcoe a lot and not once was I scared....the Widebody is the way to go.....with Legend boats
