On my 81 V20 I was running a 200 Evinrude Ocean Pro, 455 LBS dry weight, that sat on an aluminum transom bracket (38 LBS scrap weight) via a jack plate (about 20 lbs). The bilge sat (2) 65 LB batteries. Weight was not an issue. Floor was always dry except for when I filled the livewell.
Not going to discuss top speed because never had the right prop. That will change this summer.
