    Replacing fuel lines

    "I had to remove the lid over the water tank to get to the hose which was clamped to the stringer on the side of the water tank.

    208 adventure performance data/repower experience from 200 hp up to the maximum (230 – 250).

    Performance from GW attached. I think I dont need more than 150. It may take a little longer to get up on plane but thats ok with me.

    208 adventure performance data/repower experience from 200 hp up to the maximum (230 – 250).

    Curious what you mean by underpowered for the 150. I had 175 2 stroke on mine that I am going to change. The 175 was fine. I will never go out further than 5 miles and no more than 3 guys without a full tank of ges. No hardtop. Just thinking 150 will be enough for me. Your thoughts?

    2000 Adventure 208 is 150 HP enough???

    no 175 was fine. just wondering if i could save money by going smaller. probably no much savings so i should stick with 175 or more i think the boat was rated for 225-250 2 stroke wich was about 500lbs so i'll stick with a 4 stroke at or below that weight
