So, I'm thinking forget the Evinrude DFI, or HO......too heavy because the boat wasn't designed for that much weight. Not on the original standard transom anyway.
Now thinking the " LITTLE " etec 200 at 433lbs or the 175 Opti might be better choice.
I may just keep " talking " and run the current 150 looper forever too. That could also happen.

I've long held the small block Etec 200 is the perfect motor for our Vs..power to weight ratio is the ideal combo package..Just ask Lumberslinger...Ferms got a good point, too!!...if there's nothing wrong w/what ya got, RIDE IT...
