Kicker motor etc...
Posted: Sun Apr 23, 2017 1:04 am
Just wondering whats involved and how practical it is to possibly install a kicker motor on the swim platform.
If a big enough motor would fit would it be good for cruising longer distances saving fuel and wear on the V8 motors?
If it could get up to 6 to 8 knots or so running at low enough rpm that might be a nice option to extend cruising range.
I seem to remember a post years ago where someone was going to beef up the swim platform and install two outboards and do away with the stock motors altogether. I wonder if that ever came to fruition.....
My boat is a 1987 32" FB
