I had one of these. Exact same boat with a 25 hp long shaft evinrude on it. Bo right about the swamping. I manually pulled pots in some heavy water off of Burts' in Plymouth and out in front of the power plant. You could lean it over on its side and always floated up above any wave action. Flat water that 25 h.p. engine pushed that boat like a you know what. I went quite aways on decent days with it fishing the salt.
