Re: Panga Importers/Builders

If you put a level on the trailer frame, is the frame running down hill to the hitch?
If so get a raised Reese to level the frame when hanging on the ball and re weigh at that height.:toast:

Re: Panga Importers/Builders

Why the jack plate on the boat?
Does the hull need a motor with a 20" shaft, and the ETEC has 25"? "

Re: Panga Importers/Builders

I believe you need to prop that motor with one that allows it to rev up to max rated RPM.
I would want it to live a long and happy life.

Re: Panga Importers/Builders

If it will not pull to the rev limiter with a light load I would be looking for a lesser prop.
I would see no reason for a 4 blade on such a shallow draft light weight boat

That honeycomb material won' t hold a screw. Cosaboard is what I used for decking and transome. The next owner or three will thank me for building a wood free boat.

Re: Panga Importers/Builders

These boats do not have to get over the hump to climb up onto plane.
They have little bow rise when accelerating. They run at speed on a flat pad in the stern. With no dead rise what so ever, hull...
