According to the brocure, the 1970 v-20' Cuddy max hp was 135. Based on the motors that were available in 1970 the modern 115 is very comparable in hp and performance. The Yamaha 150 is a sweet motor. They have proven to be bulletproof. The extra ponies are nice to have in reserve while giving good economy at 35mph cruise. I think you would top out in the mid 40's. Probably the best all round and the most common hp to these boats.
