Just curious what you guys think about me joining a local weekday tournament league with a boat that only has a 40 horse on it. It goes 32 mph fully loaded with 2 people. The biggest lake in this is about 700 acres the rest are closer to 300. Just wasn't sure if my boat would be acceptable. 

Go out and fish and have a good time, it don't matter what size boat or motor you have. Fishing is fishing not boating.

Thanks for the reply. I really enjoy "fun fishing" just part of my always craves the competition

Couldn't agree more! 

 

As long as they allow it, I don't see a reason not to. I fished the local Thursday night tournaments out of a 15' johnboat with a 15hp tiller motor for one summer because it's what I had. Worked out just fine. 

I'd fish with whatever the minimum requirements are for the tournament, who cares what somebody might think....  Then I'd grin the whole ride home if i cashed a check!

Go out and fish. My club has a guy with a jet boat that topped out at 25mph. He goes and wins on the biggest lake we fish (Gaston) and AOY with it. 

Give it a go! There's no reason to not join because of your boat. Besides, weeknight leagues are pretty laid back (at least in my experience) so there's really no need to worry about your boat. 

Awesome thanks! Just wanted to get some opinions!
