New motor
 
Would there be any problems putting a 200HP etec on the Wellcraft, it's the same weight as the old Johnson? I don't see any, but it's always good get good advice from the ones who know.

Nope, no problems at all. In fact, I believe that Bgreene has one on his V21 and loves it. :head:

I have a 200 HP Mercury on my V21 and will attest that it's perfect. I know a lot of people have 150's and 200's on their V20's and I've never heard anyone speak badly of them.

The only problem is when you shift to a 4 stroke engine and the extra weight that brings to the table.

D, thanks no 4 stroke in the future for the V20.

If the transoms good - go for it .
V 20 rated for up to 225 hp

I have the 2005 first year Etec G1 200 HO.
Zero issues ....if you get one, you’ll love how quickly it starts when you turn the key- cold / warm doesn’t matter.

BG, THANKS and I'm pretty sure there will be a big difference in gas also.

I love my 1988 150 2 stroke I love the smoke the quick response the motor itself what I don't like is that it's a older motor and parts are hard to get or no longer available ,that I dont like
