Default motor size on a 3 man hide?

Has anybody ran a 23 sport on a 3 man gator hide? Just curious about the performance. I know it would not be very quick but would you get on plane.

Hey....Another Northerner
I thought I was the only one with in 500 miles that had a mud motor. I never see any postings from around here.
You came to the right place to get information. I can't help you with your question but I'm sure someone can.

You will be surprised what that motor will do on a 3 man hide. Now, keep in mind, you will be happier with a bigger motor. But if you have a budget you are trying to stay in, or if you already have a 23, dont be scared of that 3 man hide. it is a performer!!! Probably the best load carrying boat you can buy FOR a 23.
