Default Re: 115 HP motor on a 20' ?

Machetero,
I have a '87 Yami 115 on a 20' Safari. My boat with 2 people with full fuel will do a little over 30 mph. I would say that 115 is the minimum and the 175 HP would be a scary max!
The 115HP up here in NE does fine, most of the time i am backing off the throttle.
The good rule of thumb is 75% of the max which will put you in the 130HP range.
Hope this helps .... Nick
