I'd do two things...stay w/the 25"er and replace the bracket...or fix the one you have now... it might be a weldable repair...the common experience around here has shown a motor on a bracket likes to "BURY" itself in the wake when coming off plane...a 20" motor's power head is closer to the water and makes this situation worse...the 25" tends to stay higher and dryer...assuming you have an open, notched transom like my '74 had, I would close in that opening w/Starboard or something prior to going offshore...that of course assumes also your bracket holds the OB off enough to clear closing it up...
