I am looking to trade my 90/65 2 stroke for a 115/80 Optimax or 2+2. With an Older boat, I can not justify the cost of a new 4 stroke.
Does anyone have any idea what the delta should be between the 2 motors? Currently have an alumacraft 1860 and on Friday it ran 30 mph downstream and 26 upstream on GPS app. My real issue is that I put my family on board and it is very sluggish. The boat is qualified for 90hp so 115/80 is as close as I can get without finding a 125 with a jet on it. I have a possible deal for a 115/80 2+2 with a new powerhead on it, for mine and 2k. Good deal? I am in the VA area but could drive a bit for the right deal. If you might know what is the value of a 90/65 2 stroke? I run very skinny and rocky rivers just for more information. This post is really for information to help me figure this out.
