Re: Honda or Ficht?
I would try to get someone that owns the 4 stroke's opinion of that motor on a 23. I thought I read somewhere that the Honda 225 was a dog on a 23 SC but there was also a question of how well the motor was rigged. Beyond that I still think I would personally consider a 4 stroke if I had the choice. With the Ficht likely after that going 2 stroke.
I know a local top charter guy / comm fisherman that runs a Yami 225 4 Stroke on his 21 Contender. We haven't talked much about the engine but he's had nothing but praise for it and he puts this boat in some tough waters and a lot of hours (I haven't even been on the boat yet [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] although Trayder has ).
As for the 225 Ficht - Hooper seems to be real happy with his. Don't know if 48MPH is a little optimistic [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
How much do you want for the old 200 ? Give you some cash & trade? Like free business website hosting for a couple years? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
