I have a 2000 Tournament 225 with a OX66 225 on a bracket. I am thinking about a F250, just thinking. The OX66 weighs 525 lbs and the F250 608 lbs. The 2S oil will be about 25 lbs or so. What do y'all think? Too heavy? Anyone have any experience with this setup?

I've seen lots of older 228Gs with that setup, and they seem to do fine. I had a similar question when I owned one, and simply sent my (much smaller than me!) wife back there. She sat on the old engine, adding around 100 pounds, and the boat BARELY moved.
