first, none of the 70's motors were rated at the prop, that didn't come into being 'till the 80's.

I run an 83 Johnson V-4 115, plenty of get up and go, nice 25 mph cruise, 30+ top end. and light. motor weight on a 20 makes a difference, the V-6 200 will be squatting in the stern at rest, but you sure won't have to work the motor hard to go fast.

the 125 Force ought to be fine, too.
