Yer scuppers are gonna be submerged either way...your post re movin' batteries forward; it'll help, but won't cure it...
Answers to the questions as follows:

1. Jump in weight will be approx. 144 lbs..........not all that much.
When I have two guys in the back, I get no water from my deck drains, and approx. 2" in the V21 transom well......so, I don't expect to have a big issue.
Also, will use deck plugs if I do get water up from there..........

2. The Evinrude 3.3 liter 200HO is same block as their 225, and 250, so I suppose weight is the same. I'm buying the 200 HO because the V21 is rated for 200hp MAX.
( the 200 HO reportedly puts out 219 hp at the prop so this is great anyway )

3. What other questions ?
More pics of the girl ? Wasn't my posting - ask the other guy.

4. Genie Aye runs this same motor on his 88' V20 and reports all good things........great fuel economy, cruises 35-42 mph at no more than 4,000 rpm, tops over 52 mph.

I put deposit - now it's getting the 300 hour service etc, then in a tank to run for me, then if all good........ I drag it home for rigging .......and running !
Thanks

I ALWAYS wait to sell an engine until I know it's replacement is working fine... You can never be too careful.

LOL Naa... only about 100 miles between us... and Tice's in Barnaget is between us and makes it even less distance...so IF I ever make it to a raft up and IF he ever makes it to the same raft up we can compare boats at that time... but I'm sure his is way prettier than mine. I think the only boat around that could give him a run for his money in the beauty dept is Lumberslingers.... I use mine to fish, and she really doesn't get the beauty treatment she deserves.. Oh, sure, I wash her and all, but I don't have an enclosure or stuff like that... I have a bimini, but that's about it... (Still gotta mount the arch for the radar... <sigh>)... and I'm seriously thinking about making some bolsters for over the rod racks. It would be kind of interesting though to see the difference in power output between his 4 stroker and my 2 stroker... but so many things can effect the outcome...prop, pitch, load, tabs, etc. Still, ....it might be fun
