Thanks Gar1970 I got the motor mounted on it this morning. It only a 25hp, but it will get me where I need to go. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/08/full-29465-21986-db8ceec3_25da_44ae_b92a_64b633ed9dfa.jpeg)

Very nice! That 25 will be plenty to get you around. I have a 1652 with a 1978 35hp and it gets me where i need to go. My motor is so old its probably equal to a 25hp anyways lol

Congrats on the new sled~  ! That 25 should put it around 30mph or sightly more on the GPS. I've got a 1648 river Flat nose, and get 29 with an E-tech 25, factory prop. That was before I built storage boxes, added an I-pilot Terrova, and all the other gear.

Thanks everyone. Every time I step outside and see her, I get excited. I’ve wanted one like this for a long time. I’m hopping I have the patience to wait to take it out until I get the floor and maybe the sides done. But I know there will always be something to do to make it better.  Right now I’m trying to decide where to place the fish finders.

Is there a chance you might have a picture of your 1652 with a center console?
