I seen one down my way with twin 75's and it was sweet. Not to heavy in the rear and moved great. Twice the prop in the water more than account for a few horses. He said it would run high 30's and fuel was pretty good. Id love to have a couple of 90hp 3 cylinder yammies on one.

Stink, I agree but those 90's still weight 275 lbs each. Is there enough flat transom for twins to be hung there or is a bracket the only way?

There was enough flat transom to mount twin 140 Johnsons on my old '73. Luckily no one ever tried to launch it like that (can you say instant SINK?). I bought the boat like this with intention of using one engine and selling the other. Ended up using one for a while, then sold both motors to Skools, had the transom redone, rebuilt the entire trailer and sold the boat/trailer with new transom & no engine to buy my V21.

I love my Johnzuki 140 on my V20.
40 mph top speed, 5 mpg, quiet as a mouse, 8 years with no problems so far (knock on wood).

I'd love to know how your getting 40 on a v20.. My zuke 140 only gets me to about 43 on the 180.. I sure miss the old Johnson 150 2 stroker, i've had that boat up to 58 when it was newer and low on fuel.

Bruce, looks like you got bottom paint on that 180, thats worth quite a few mph, especially if its been recoated a time or two
