Re: 225 or 250 HP too much???
I went from an old OMC 155 commercial to a Yamaha HPDI 200 this year. *I can tell you that the 200 is more than enough power for my old boat, and I wouldn't go with anything heavier, that's for sure. *Weight affects not only how low the stern (and scuppers) are at the dock, but also the handling characteristics at higher speeds. *At full throttle it's definitely a little bit "squirrelly!" *But it's also a gas to surprise the newer Grady's around here! *;D
