You didn't ask about the effort to put it on. Which your patients won't allow you to do it your self. You asked about size. You would see a big difference in performance. It's like a boat that's rated for a 200 but you put a 115 on it. It's gonna move the boat but not as good

80 is plenty. Fished out of a X19 in all conditions with a 82 and had no trouble, 101 would be better if you were fighting a 20+ wind all day that is about the only benefit. As far as paying to replace batteries....when you buy a big boat you have to pay to play.

Don't come out the woods to throw your two cents in and then go hide again. I know who you are. :-)

I've got the saltwater version of the 80 fortrex on my 21 bay boat(3/16 aluminum hull) and it works great. It should drag an express around without any struggle!
