Fastest with 200

[bgreene]

Read claim of 60 mph with a 200 hp outboard
Thats by far fastest as most report 45-52 range

Personally, I would have gone 250 + but V21 max rating 200.
The lightest 300 would be my choice if allowed.

easily done with proper setup, Ridge Runner was running high 60s with his 250, theres a v20 with a 300 merc 4 stroke in V running high 60's with a conservative setup

That’s to fast for me. I’m at 38 mph with a 150 and that’s enough for me. 60? Geees. That’s flying

Almost literally flying. When I first repowered with the Yamaha 200 HPDI I could hit 50 with fresh bottom paint on smooth water with the engine trimmed. It felt dicey with so little of the hull in the water. I rarely exceed 40 these days. Of course, I AM old.

Was a video I saw of with radical I/0 reportedly going over 70 mph.
Was porpoising a bit
