I'm looking to upgrade to a 31 foot sportcraft SF for salmon fishing. It's 12k pounds. Twin inboards. I would like to install a kicker with auto pilot. I'm thinking I may need a 25 yamaha. I have heard great things about the TR 1-gold, but it says that it can only handle a 20 hp max. Does anybody have experience fishing on this boat and any thoughts or first hand experience with a kicker on a boat this size. (i don't want to have to use bags anymore).
thanks Tony
