Default Re: 225 HP Evinrude on 18 CC

I have the 18 with the Hermco Bracket and Evinrude 175. The Full flotation bracket makes a difference. With the prop I have on it, it will run 50. The boat handles well it gets up on plane fast and has plenty of power. My brother-in-law calls it a Ferrari. I would think twice about putting that large of a motor on your boat. Before I had the work done on the boat it had a 20" transome and with a 150 evinrude, it sat low in the water and always had water coming in the scuppers. I think even with your 25" transome you will have water comming in the back. Just a thought
