Great looking boat Joel, I bet they look good on the water. How well do they perform? Not that performance is all that important when you are skimming along in a little mini tug. But that Yamaha OB looks like it will push it along pretty fast. Do yous have a 16' tug plan that accommodates a little inboard motor? It would be a blast to rub that tug in the resevoirs here in Central Indiana. -Kruez-
We do not have any plans for an inboard version, but it would be no problem to do a small Yanmar sail drive in the outboard version. I don't know how fast she goes, prbably not much more than 6 knots at about half throttle and any more power than that it just buries the stern deeper in the water. I suspect a 9.9 high thrust would just about push it at hull speed. ---Joel---
