I am lucky enough to have a Clarke Estuary and am using the suggested 15 hp 2 stroke engine, it’s time to replace it but want to use a 4 stroke. Any body using one on their boat? Much difference in performance with 9.9 or 15 other than weight?
Thanks

Paul Mc said:That's an amazing boat, I drooled on one yesterday at a show. He is always quick to correct you that it is a displacement hull when you ask, "does it plain? does it get up and go?" so, I'll ask you guys, I know what a DH is, but.......does it glide? Or barge water? I've never seen one under way.
Ronm said:Hi Mike, it is a 10 for duck hunting, stable, safe, big enough for 5 doz decoys and a dog.
My 15 is done like dinner, I am replacing it and now you can only get 4 stroke engines,
I was more concerned about mounting a heavier engine than performance, not much you can do with a displacement hull. Except that it is stable and safe!
You are gonna love it, if you have the dodger you can stay out in the nasty weather!
Thanks
