[aristocat]

Lookin to rpower. Old Evenrude 225 gave up the ghost.

Anyone got experience with 200HP 4 cycle Yamaha vs Honda repwers.

Getting quotes from dealers -- anyone know 25" shaft?

Thanks

One member her went with one of the big HODA'S and ended up selling his boat because it was so stern heavy.

Since those are the two HEAVIEST motors on the market Ill just ask....Not to get into a debate, but with all the advances in two strokes I just couldnt see buying a new four banger. You can have the best of both worlds in a new Etec or even a fuel injected Merc. or the like. So why not stroke it twice? ;D

Don't forget the HPDI Yamaha. ;)

I believe they still offer a few OX66's as well. MERCURY might even have some of the original EFI's(not DFI) in there line-up as well. Just remember, The V-20 was designed back in the day when the heaviest outboards weighed in the 300 lb range. With all of our advances, they've gotten heavier.
