Mark, The transom weight limit is 388lbs. A Yamaha 90hp 4 stroke is 369lbs, so technically you are OK, however, I have run 17s with heavy motors and was not happy with the attitude of the boat stopped or going slow. I'm 225lbs, so when i'm in the rear of the boat it takes water over the transom. I think the 17s run great with 60 to 75 hp. About chine walking, I like it, and can control the boat when it's running on the cavation plate.
