May be light but it won't float!
May be light but it will still bounce down the highway!!

CLEAN YOUR GARAGE! Just joking 
Actually he may want to be able to remove it easily in that case just clamp it as tight as possible then tie wire or lock your levers together.
I kept a 9.9 on my classic for about 8 years without a problem. |

| We took it out this morning and with 2 people(each 140lbs) plus gas and rods and tackle we got 20.5mph later today we might take it out again and test with one person. The motor doesn't have holes to bolt the motor to the boat. |

DO NOT change a thing !
Your motor may have been Upgraded to 15Hp 
That speed is at the Top of the Curve

| Reasonable speed, probably not modified. My 9.8 pushes my LT25 with me (almost weight as much as you TWO guys) at a little over 19mph. 20.5 for a 15'4" seems reasonable. |

an LT or classic will run faster than a high sider with the same power ...(In most Cases)
If I put the same load in both boats the Classic is defiantly faster than the High sider
Pushing that much beef takes POWAH !
What size Prop is on it ? anything over a 9 Pitch is a dead Give away ... |
