Hello all I am new to the forum and am interested in learning about repowering a Mako. My interest in this developed after seeing a friends (Mist Rest)83 that he repowered and provided us with a solid fishing platform for offshore ground fishing at much less cost than purchasing new.
My first question is how do you know if a certain motor will be compatable with a given hull. I am thinking primarily of using 4 strokes (in addition to ground fishing we do a lot of trolling for bass and tuna) .Given their added weight how does one determine if the hull can handle it.
As you can tell I Know little about this but am willing to learn.
