Re: Repower could add too much weight?
How does the tohatsu 90 or 115 compare to the opti? Good dealer network up here, and I think the 140 (or 135) whenever tohatsu releases it may be a good option for a 20SF repower. Thoughts? Father Frank wrote a great reply on another thread about the tohatsu, but since tohatsu and Opti share the same orbital technology, which one is better? For SF20?
Also, how much does a bracket help/hurt the ride of the 20? I know it is basically a no brainer on the 23, but it sounds like it might be less clearcut with the 20. (i.e. old carb'd 2 stroke on transom versus 4 stroke/DI on bracket). On the 23, most people are looking at v6 4 strokes, so the bracket is basically required...
LAST QUESTION: why not just get a rebuilt fuel injected 2 stroke? (Ox66, etc.) I know shrimp also had some great old merc options.
