The Yamahas for light off shore trolling somewhere remote and tropical.

I believe a 78 or 79 model V20 would be good for twins due to the extra wide splash well.
Bradford, you just hit on my thinking, too...twin 90s plus a bracket sounds like a lot of weight, where if you had one of the wider trannies like the years you mention, save yourself the added weight of the bracket...flotation or not...
