Therm is right.
I can tell you from experince my 235's was thristy! 27 gph at WOT. My 74 CC ran 43 MPH with that motor just like every one else (sorry couldn't quite get 60!!!). The only outboard that I know that is thristier is what I'm running on my other boat!, a 250 V8 Johnson! 32 gph @ WOT - but it will push a old and heavy 25 Aquasport CC at 42 MPH. Kamikaze

Therm I will have to agree on the Yamaha. There are always so many people who say a 200 is too much and I will disagree everytime. I have a 1990 Yamaha 200 and in calm water I can do 47Kts or 56MPH WOT. That being said I rarely have to cruise anything above 3100 rpms for an economical cruise and still get to where I am going fairly quick. I have been on only one other V-20 and it had a 150 and that would be a bare minimum in my book.

Plus the YAMAHA 150 and 200 are the same weight in the early years as they are the same displacement. Mid to late 90's they upped the cubic inches of the 200 to the same as the 225/250's.
