Do your Hondas weigh a lot more than these Yammies?
Hookup1 said:I have the Yamaha F150 four strokes on a pre-2001 hull. They are about 470 lbs. each. This is a four cylinder block. I love the way the boat performs with these engines except I would like a lower plaining speed. The 2001+ hull may improve that behavior as would more power and less prop.
If the Honda's are 200 hp and 466 lbs. you should be fine.
Hookup1 said:On the other hand jeddy is looking at a boat that has been re-powered already. Yamaha 225's are not an option.
