Re: single or twins - 23 CC
I did the switch from a single 225 hung on the transom to twin 200 etecs on a bracket. I love the current set up. It's fast like I wanted.
When I had the single top speed was 46 mph cruise was 26 mph getting almost 3 mpg. With twins I get 61 mph WOT cruise is 29 mph getting 2.26 mpg.
There are pluses and minuses to both. The single will get you better fuel economy and ride like a Seacraft was meant to. If you hang twins you will need to move weight forward to get the same ride or you will be using lots of tabs. I moved my gas tank forward.
If I had to do it again and money wasn't an issue. I don't thnk I could decide.I would have to flip a coin.
