I will send more specs if I get out tomorrow - weather is changing.
I bought my Etec from a marina in St Petersberg. Husband and wife company - very good service. He is very knowlegable about boat and motors. I asked him if I should get the big big block - he said " that 200 V60 small block was made for boats specifically like the V20".
He loved the way it handled and performed. I have hydraulic steering on it.
It is a great rig !!

You're right, that does look like an anaconda !
Fishing trip got cancelled for today. Looks like the weather is going to be bad for the rest of the week :-(
