I think thats good info even if its only 30% as long as you can match HP to HP. They sure seem to be dependable. I speaking of the Honda's.

Yeah, Vic...dependability a major factor on gettin' the Honda...pretty happy w/ it, but got a boner for more HP...that small-block E-Tec 200 got me goin'!!... 8) ;D...
step...no doubt Merc's puttin' out great motors...owners on THT are REAL HAPPY w/ their's...specially the Verados...SWEET...but my 30+ yr old 20" transom just won't handle the weight of a 200 hp Verado...if I had a full transom w/ bracket, it would be in the running...truth is most OB mfgrs turnin' out good stuff these days...they gotta...look what happened to OMC over the early model FICTs...50 yr old company tits-up in short order... :o ::)...

Just to add an aside to this discussion and make every one feel better. I captain a 330 Express Grady White with twin 300 Yammys and the digital fuel flow meters tell me that at WOT I am using 53 GPH * :o *Glad I don't have to fill the tanks up out of my checking account
