I had a 50 # thrust on my 14ft lowes and sometimes I needed more. I wouldn't buy it.  JMO

ok...thanks. i have a little out board motor but i was thinking to use it to get where i need to be and the trolling motor to just mote up and down along the weed beds and such.

you need at least 30 pounds of thrust, I have a 30 and a 42 bow mount on my 12 ft V-bottom and still need some more on a windy day. Better to have to much than not enough power

I dought if that is a 15 lbs thrust motor, but I do know it is older then dirt.  It may work for you if the price is right <100 preferably <50.

Good Luck,

Tom D.
