Not to mention the weight factor. I think a 200 hp 4-stroke is going to be way too heavy. My 200 HPDI is pushing it in the weight department. In hindsight, I might have done better with a 150 or 175.

I have a 2004 150hp yamaha 2 stroke and it will top out 45-46 mph depending on the load .
My friend has a 225 optimax on his v-20 and he tops out around 50 mph . We burn about the same fuel at cruse , but his rides much lower in the stern due to the added weight .
I would be willing to give up a little hp for signficant weight savings .

Dang Lumber the bottom paint is faded and chipped, the teak is all grayed out, and there is some dust on the windshields.
All right what did you do with Lumbers boat and who the heck are you?

Most economical 200hp - how about one that won't start :hi:

Sorry, just had to do it. Irresistible.
