Re: is 18 too much?

We have a 12 ft (actually closer to 11.5) cartopper. With a 5.5 Johnson is feels comfortable but has no speed. I’m getting ready to try a West Bend 12 hp on it but I think that will be pushing it. Point is, I agree that a couple more feet makes a difference. If I was doing this over I’d get a 14 footer which would give more flexibility in motors to use with it.
