Thread starter yzchamp Start date May 29, Status Not open for further replies. Joined May 5, Messages Label on my 12 ft aluminum boat says that max horsepower rating is 12 HP.
What will happened if i put 20 HP on it? Bondo Moderator Staff member. Joined Apr 17, Messages 67, Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating yzchamp said:. Joined May 28, Messages Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating yeah, too much stress on the transom, Not to mention the coast guard, getting on your butt.
Joined Mar 9, Messages Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating 12 to 20 is a pretty big jump. The rating on the transom is decided by the stress that the motor will exert on it from the thrust. A 20hp is a little less than twice what your boat is designed for. The first thing that you should be concerned with is the transom getting ripped off of the boat. The motor and transom will be on the bottom of the lake, and the boat may stay on top if there is foam in it.
That is more motor than I would even consider on a boat that size. If you want to go faster, get a bigger boat. Joined Oct 30, Messages 20, Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating Many 12' boats will not plane as one would expect. I have a very heavy-duty Meyers 12' v-hull rated for 12 hp. Have used a 2. The only thing that the 3 larger motors did, was make the boat handle poorly and point the bow to the sky.
Joined Sep 25, Messages Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating If the 20hp checks out OK them sell the 12 ft with the 8hp. Summer break is almost here and the 12ft will sell fast good first boat, will keep the younger boaters out of mom's hair.
Should give you money to get a little bigger boat that can handle the 20hp, 2 ppl. Hogger Petty Officer 1st Class.
Joined Jul 15, Messages Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating I had a 12' Best 20 Foot Aluminum Boat List Smoker Craft with a 5 hp on it. It sucked. We could hardly get up river to one of our hunting spots. So I found a guy that traded me the 5hp for an older 20hp.
What a difference! Check the rating tag on the boat, but I wouldn't go with anything less than a 15hp, especially if your carrying a couple people and gear. Joined Jul 8, Messages Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating My first boat was a 14' alluminum that someone had used too much motor on. My best friend and I were at the lake running trot lines one day when the weld along the deck and transom gave way We made it to shore half submerged..
Get a bigger boat, or get used to a small boat. Joined May 15, Messages Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating I think something may be wrong that you are missing. I have a 12' john boat with a 9. The first time I took it out it would not get the boat on plane and I was so disapointed.
All of the Aluminum Jon Boats With Cabins sudden out of nowhere the motor just started running twice as fast and then slowed back down after 30 seconds. After much research I found out that one of the coils was bad and it was only running on one cylinder.
I replaced the coil and it runs great! I have not checked the speed with a GPS but compared to my stingray it feels like we are going about 15 to 20 MPH with 2 adults ans 2 small kids. Have you made sure it is firing on both cyliders? Also have you tried to adjust the trim of the motor? Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating thanks for the replies. Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating There is no replacement for displacement Put the 20 on it I once had a 20 on a ft jon.

That's the same as putting a 10 hp on her. DJ Guest. No matter how you look at it. The extra two feet in a 14' will make a lot of difference.

Joined Jun 2, Messages Re: 12 Foot Aluminum Jon Boats For Sale China 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating The type of boat makes a difference, flat or v bottom or mod v. Ive got a Valco U12 which had a 7. Gets on plane right away and goes more than twice as fast.
A 12ft flat bottom will probably not handle a 20hp 4 stroke cause of the extra weight and low sides but a V bottom always runs a deeper draft and can afford the extra weight. Your beam boat width at back is also a factor, mine is 65 inches.
By the way, most new motors hp the only difference is in the carb, weight and everything else is the same. So if you like the 15 you might as well go with the Joined Jun 7, Messages 1, Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating Keep the 8 hp and get an 11' inflatable. It will carry more, weigh less, be safer, and plane easily with a couple people in it. A good one would be rated for that 20 also.
Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating True, a 12ft inflate with a 20hp would do real good. Unless of course your running rivers and the first log or snag you hit rips a 6inch hole in your boat.
Re: 12 ft aluminiun boat Hp rating get a boston whaler. If all you ever go in is wide open sea water than who cares but if you want to transition than go with light aluminum boat with its max hp rating.
