[cool] I always liked the Lund but found them a little pricie. As you know I bought the tracker 16' deepV at the time of purchase the package came with a 40HP Merc.ass well. But instead of an 84" beam as the Lund has the tracker has 92" beam. The 40HP would not bring the boat up on plane, even trying a different pitched prop. I was very unhappy with this and did some complaining and managed an upgrade to a Merc 60. This motor has plenty of power and get us up on plane real quick. The sixty also trolls good with a GPS checked low speed of 1.5MPH. My top speed with a full tank of fuel is 28MPH as I get down on fuel my speed gets up to about 33MPH. These speeds I am happy with and is still easy on the gas budget as well. Chief
