Default Re: Hello  and advice needed on V20 purchase

Though my first choice would be a 150, also my max size choice would be the same, I run a 1985 with a 99 Johnson 115 put on new in 2001 on a Armstrong Bracket and with a full tank which is how I keep it and three people and a bimini with curtains and assorted fishing equip and coolers etc it does 35 mph by gps wide open and cruises nice at 27-28. So have no fear about a 115 being enough motor unless your loaded up with people and maybe planning a lot of adult water skiing, might not be enough to get them up quickly enough. But for any sea conditions and a good load it will serve you very well and you will fish all day literally and use very little fuel.
