I agreed with Ferm, The extra HP can be handy if you have extra weight and fast moving storm on your tail...
I have an E-Expensive trust fund going, I have my eyes firmly set on a 200 HP with the Bells and whistles ..

If yami had a 175, I would have bought that. Don't get me wrong, the 150 pushes the boat fine. But the extra horses would keep the engine from workin hard. Either way, Your gonna love that new engine smell.

I just priced those engines...the 175 is definately the most "bang for the buck"...

This should give you a close guestimation of performance and fuel burn of a 175HP ETEC on the V-20 as the DUSKY 203 is built off of the V-20 mold for the most part.

I do like that 175 ETEC!
bradford, you got a 20 or 25"? Either way, think about the possibility of having a fixed or hydraulic jack plate also.

Engine man left me a message while I was out and quoted a price of $2000  more for the 175 over the 150. Sounds high to me, what do ya'll think?  Of course thats an over the phone answering machine price, not a "I'm sitting in his office at the end of the month with a stack of twenty dollar bills" price. For that kind of money I'll install just one of reel's seatboxes buy a 150 and spend the extra towards an Eddie Boykin half tower.

When I bought my 200 I was really interested in the 175 but he didn't have any in stock so I opted for the 200 and I'm glad I did.
It has awesome get up and go , when I'm lite on fuel and in the boat by myself and its calm I get it wot and trim it up it gets a little squirrely and I like it
