mate that stacer of mine was 1300 brand new ,its a 3.4 cartopper ,depends on how much gear youve got onboard and everything else to how fast youll go ,but ide say equivelent to about a 2 hp ,and trust me that wont do much ,,,good for trollin though

Daniel !

Lecky's aren't designed to go speeding around in

The more you accelerate with a lecky the quicker your battery will die just rember that.

Yes transom mount lecky's are meant to troll with but dont get caught out to far from place of launch else you'll be oaring it home.

I have got a 55 lb kota on my 4.8 meter tinny & if there's no wind /current it gets along very briskly @ a guess maybe 6 knots

thanks guys i might go by an old cheapo motor for it now

mate ya should be able to get boat, motor and maybe trailer for less than that on ebay

nop ebeen looking e-bay for a few months now, and notting so far

The motor you showed link to has had a rectifyer fitted to it no big deal they're only worth around $100

All they do is convert Alternating current into Direct c12 volt current & thats what you need to charge the battery.

Try here Boat point

yeah mate 8hp is the right size ,they recommend 6kw which is 8hp so warrenty wont be a prob

thanks jas and all the other guys for the help with picking the right boat ....... yea i looked at the smaller 20 footers and there where too small ... i have a few mates that like to came and fish in the boat and they bring a bit of gear i bring heeps tho hahahhahaha yea the stacer the right boat for me .... jason is your boat welded in on the sides
