Ditto everyone with the 150 comments. I am running an 02 Yamaha 150 two stroke and fully loaded (six people, two dogs, full fuel, full cooler) hit 41 MPH WOT and cruise at 27-30 getting 3.1 MPG. With a lighter load (2 people, 2 dogs, cooler, fuel) I am seeing 43-44 MPH WOT and 28-32 MPH at 3.4-3.5 MPG.

And that is just about as good as it gets, more HP less MPG, very little increase in performance.
I am calling Franco this morning I will ask him about the top end and MPG to.

W/the three of us aboard I doubt it could achieve it's top speed ...
Heck, too much WIND resistance if nothing else...

Called him and left message, he will call back sometime and we will find out, I believe he was in mid 40's with her though.

Just spoke with Franco, he said his 350 I/O V20 cranked over 50 mph loaded on GPS, so they definetly run with the wind for that combo
