We just acquired this bad boy through trade, it has a 25 johnson as you can see. We took it out on a first run and it took about 30 seconds to finally pull me up. I only weigh 155 and it seems like this thing was plenty of power after i got up. I dont understand why this 25 wont deep water start as easy as everyone is saying theirs does?

| I was thinking some front end weight would do justice, but this thing is so sketchy we already have rollers coming over the front on a relatively calm day. The engine is a 2 cylinder 2 stroke. It seems like the 4 stroke would be ALOT more torquey. Thanks for the input fellas.
