You can use these to get a good idea of what it will do, just find a test with a boat of similar size and hull design as you V and you will be pretty close.

If I had it to do over...it'd be an E Tech...which was not available in this HP range when I needed a motor...even more so now they've been out for a few years and proven themselves...

they are nice motors, but make sure you have a dealer that knows what they are doing with them.

In 07 we repowered with an Etec 150. Couldn't be more pleased. The top end we acheived was 46MPH at 5100 Rs with a stainless prop. Lumber has a 200HP Etec which is the same as the 150 with some computer adjustments. Just as cterrebonne says make sure your dealer knows what he's doing with the Etec. Billy Mac

Reel your are right that is why I said we repowered. I couldn't affoed it by my self so my father in law and brother in law are my partners on the motor. My ETEC dealer is the oldest Johnson dealer in Michigan. I research my options and one dealer was within two miles from my house. He did not know any thing about the digital dash. That is why I chose Lockemans.
Yes I know Evinrude and not Johnson makes The ETEC!
