Slow cruise with the etec outboard....
Last Saturday, running in the mid 20's.....25 -27 mph at mid 3,000's rpm.......
That 200 HO Etec just purring along, quiet rumble. Probably getting over 40 mpg, just like the Toyota Prius. V21 range, likely close to 2,000 miles, so I can go out to the far canyons, or run down off Florida in search of Marlin, Tuna, and Swordfish.... Yup, and troll using the Zebco push buttons, filled to the top with 6 lb test mono.

Now a Zebco automatic casting closed face fishing reel was colored dark green and pale green back with two little pale green rollers on crank handle which was model 404. Is that the one?????????? If so you ain't no spring chicken!

Won a 202 at a raffle during a Detroit Tigers baseball game once. I was 10 yrs old and used it once before going back to my trusty Zebco 33.

I'm fairly impresed with you V web site guys - seem to get the jokes and such....
The Zebco's - yeh, that's right, I like to use em' for offshore trolling. A four rod spread from my V21 - two in the wash, and two from the home made outriggers I made from PVC tubing. Zebco color - doesn't matter, model, doesn't matter -all are top notch with a drag that can tire the biggest bluefin and blue marlin. These Zebco's are a bit much for shallow water fluking, so for that I break out the Penn Internation 130's.

I like to put my international 130's through a true test - 1lb crappie fishing on the dock at the lake. Talk about drags screaming!!!! HAHA
Reely tho, impressed and jealous of the 200 etec. 3000 rpm barely planes me off in the low 20's w/ the 150 two banger yammi. I bet you aren't far off w/ you range numbers estimation....
