I dont know if theres another sten drive outerbanks with more hp. than mine. I'm running a kad300 285 hp. with a 115gallon bait tank and most of the time 3 or four guy. One of them is around 320lbs. so most of the time I'm very heavy. It really is just going to take time on the water for you to get the feel of you boat. I always trim my boat from sound and feel. The numbers are great and all, but every trip is diffrent with seas, weight, up swell, down swell, weather, kids and wife, or hard core guys who just want to get there and fish. The boats a tool run it hard and catch fish!!!
