Cool

But our boats are only rated for 250 HP and nothing will ever change that. Go too high and you lose your insurance.

Having to decide between doing or not doing something I love so some insurance company can make an extra dividend for their shareholders never really appealed to me.

Bradford, I totally agree with you, but when I think of the $$$ that I could lose if I ever got into an accident without insurance......well, I guess I can make do with my 200HP Merc and be happy.

V-21's were 200HP, and I believe v-20's were 235HP for the later ones while earlier models were 200HP. Then there was I/O's which went to 250HP I believe.
