mechanic suggested a 225 yamaha 4 stroke as the cure, anything else would be an expensive remedy.

Does he think a F225 is not an expensive remedy??????
A new powerhead for your motor will be $4K max + installation. You should be on the water again for around $5K. The 200 EFI Merc is a good engine if you take care of it. Switch manufacturers and you have another $1K in swapping controls, gauges, etc. to contend with.
It all depends on how much you want to spend. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
FYI - You can get left over 2-stroke Suzuki 225 V6s w/ controls for under $8K. Search classicmako.com for the place offering them.
