Which motor to get?
#19
If I remember right, you had a Fish Cat Cougar. Small diameter toons. Granted, two per side.
My hubby and Brother in Law notice a big difference on drag with them each and gear weighing in at about 230 and add a large battery and motor. Even on the Cardiac Canyon.
Like Pontoonman mentioned the water level line. Not the length so much but the diameter of the toon make bigger footprint.
The 30 worked fine on "my" Renegade as I am lighter even with a battery and Baxter, but my Assault will go faster...smaller diameter pontoon.
Again in sking description, One ski the biggest drag and hardest to get up because the body is dragging, once up, there is little to no drag regardless of length of ski. Wake board there is much more noticeable drag not only getting up but pulling. Again length doesn't matter.


Amount of weight makes the biggest difference on the water level line. That is why the guys prefer to row and leave batter and motor on shore most times.
