I have a little over 200 of them on the back now......I would love another hundred. Been 60+ on a cuddy a few years back(250 Yammie) and she ran great, not scary at all

my cuddy has a 175, but i was looking at a i/o for sale and considering it, i got a 400 sbc i built for a toy and thinking of putting the 389 back in the toy and the 400 in a boat, it just got a bit, make that alot too many horses.

200 is what most are rated for, but they do fine with a 150, with much better gas, and weight issues!

I've beenjoking around with te idea of putting a pair of 200's on the back of mine just for fun, seems like theres a pretty center console in Fla and a sterndrive cuddy up on the Great lakes that are trying to make'm fast. Might have to mess with them a bit

lol, my old man used to have a searay laguana with a pair of twin 225 black maxes on it. it did 72 by gps in perfect conditions. i bet a pair of two hundreds would make a v look like a quarter mile car when you gave the gas
