I own a 2006 170CC with a 75 e-tec and love the extra power. Went fishing with my two boys, a full tank of gas, full cooler, bait tank and fishing gear it gets on plane around 3 seconds and top speed is 41 to 44 MPH. You don't need go that fast but my sons love it. Plus I pull the on tubes when the fish are not biting.
I fish in the ocean off the NC coast when weather permits and the torque with the e-tec helps going out the inlets.
The trolling motor battety goes under the center console and I installed a removable bow mounted 12V 55LB thrust trolling motor and it does and I need even in rivers with current.
hope this helps.
