[QUOTE="redbug, post: 47817, member: 71"] I would go with the bigger motor. I had a 175hp on my 19ft boat and have a 225 on my 21ft boat I can cruise at 60mph and only be pushing 4900rpms with my 175 i was pushing 5200 rpms to get the same speed With the bigger motor i save gas and the motor doesn't work as hard to get the same performance. And with the added horse power you have the extra get up and go if you need to get out of harms way Then the added resale value seals the deal. You can never go wrong buying a yammie for your boat. it will run forever. Wayne [/QUOTE]
