Doubt it. The 225 Honda is still 100 lbs heavier dry and the Honda is not reknown for their blistering performance. A good running 150 2smoke would outdo the Honda.
What is the top end on the 235+ on the HydraSport?

I'm swinging a 15 1/2" prop, but I've hit 53 with 2 people and a half tank of fuel while sucking down close to 28 GPH. Once you port a big looper a little bit they can go through some fuel. I an't complain though as I can cruise it at 3800 running 21-23 knots burning roughly 10-11 GPH, not to mention the power that she has to get on plane. I'm sure I could get it to almost 55 with a better prop, but the HYDRA-SPORTS 2000CC was never meant to break 50, it has a hook in the transom that acts like trim tabs and it plants the bow around 45 hard and takes ALOT of engine trim to break it free.
