Motor amp draw?

[Basstronics]

Hi Guys,

looking at an eagle tree.

Here is the largest motor I have:

Max Amperage of 78 Amps... Is it possible I might go over the 100 amps the lower Eagle Tree records?

I dont think I will have a larger motor that this ever, but suppose it may be possible.

I would love to save $30 if possible. If not, well I wont die over it I guess...

Hull? Prop? It can pull over 100 amps if the setup is improper.

Take it from a guy who demagntized a motor. Yes you can. Quite easily actually. Just put a slightly too big prop on or have the hull run too wet. Not a good practice to say the least, but I would spend the extra 30 bucks. Then at least you will know you have some room and who knows what your next boat or motor will be.

Prop will be experimenting with.
