I read back quite a few threads about this but since outboard technology has had a few changes lately, I wanted to seek opinions on the this board for motor options for the '72 23 CC I am restoring. I have an oppurtunity to purchase a pair of 2005 Honda 150's that I am familiar with. My plan is to raise the transom 5 inches to accomodate the 25" motors and give myself some extra freeboard for 970lbs of motors. The rear live well will be removed and I plan to alter the bulkhead in front of the motors. The bulkhead will be moved towards the rear and lowered. I am also thinking of installing a removable wall that will be flush with the top of the iceboxes.

The boat will be used to go to the stream which in NE FL is 60 miles out and I want to go to the Dry Tortugas in the keys which is the reason for my preference for twins. Any thoughts of this combination?
