    Default What size motor

    Im either going to be purchasing a 1848 war eagle or an 18' Excel f4 duck boat. I want to go with a mud buddy for the motor. I really have no clue what size I need though. I would like to be able to run 30mph. Does anyone have any reccomendations?

    I have an F4 with a 5000 that will do over 30, the 45 hp will be close to 30 with out a heavy load.

    How about the black death 5500? What do you guys think about that motor? Whats the ballpark price on a 18" f4 with a mudbuddy 5000 on it?

    Big Dane check out the Mud Buddy forum, that might help you with your questions. Lots more folks running MM and mud boats over there.
