WTF? First, there is the obvious, a 200 with a 225 paired together. Maybe not that big a deal. Second, however, why does that boat have 425 h.p. on it. Isn't that a little bit too much?

Besides a 2" step-up in the cockpit (I'd be bustin' my @$$ all day long), a short trailer tongue, engine controls on wrong side of wheel...oh and mismatched outboards (assists in right turns)...nothin'

Controls on the wrong side....whoever refit this boat didn't know sh!t from shinola! Apparently!

Sh!t from Shinola, LOL. Showing your age Blue Man. Bet your wearing dungarees right now too.
My kids give it to me when they hear these all the time

Willy actually I'm not really old enough to claim that phrase but I've heard it before and a buddy here at work who is 5 years older than me filled me in on it....

For those that don't know what it means, Shinola is an old brand of black shoe polish. On a white rag it looks just like doo doo, hence the phrase.

um fellows those also are not counter motors so it is a dumb azz that did that i hope it's actually either a pair of 200's or 225's that have different hoods or a 200 with 225 reeds and carbs to make it a 225 or a 225 with 200 reeds and carbs to make it a 200,

heck you boys are going to love what i'm doing with the 250 Wellcraft

i've decided to paint both motors white leg and foot wise but the lower housings / pans and hoods i'm going to paint one Evinrude Blue with all the 225 Evinrude emblems and the other i'm painting Johnson white with all the Johnson decals lol that should throw people. but one of mine is a 200 Evinrude that i rebuilt and installed 225 reeds and carbs to the exact same match to the 225 Johnson i have that's the same yr. but i know my 2 are the same yr and exact match in all ways since i rebuilt both.

that's why i'm painting both lower units and midsections the same Johnson white seeing as i have a set of Johnson hoods, i'm not reselling the 250 anyway.
