I'll throw a spanner in the works now...
I started out with the Honwave t38ie, mine was the older model weighing in at 48kg, i believe the newer ones are slightly lighter (I'm sure someone on here will confirm if that's correct)
As funds were tight at the time, i purchased an old Suzuki DT9 smoker to pair with the honwave, To my astonishment myself and a friend onboard, both weighing in around the 85-90kg mark managed an impressive 21mph (gps reading)
Very little gear onboard though- just an anchor, food, drink and fuel.
As i got a few pennies together i bought a 15hp Suzuki 4 stroke, as said above, that weighed in at 44kg. The outboard performed great but i did suffer with a lot of bow rise which left the nipper feeling unsafe. I fitted a hydrofoil to the outboard and never had a problem again. Great set-up, great speed, loads of room....
