GREAT info SOS, thanks.
My only concern with the 175 is the extra 70lbs.
I haven't thought about a bracket, hmmm.
I was thinking about only raising the deck 1.5" sounds like I need to increase that.
Where do your scuppers drain? Out the back or the sides?
Thanks!

An etec would not be a bad option, I like four strokes but the etecs are solid by all accounts and 165HP at the prop sure sounds nice. I hear the Suzy 140 is really around 130, I have no facts to substantiate that but rumor says...
My scuppers drain out the back, I have three, one center and two sides. I'd raise the deck more, but as pointed out there is a balance with the low freeboard already.
I like the closed transom and bracket personally. I love these boats!!
Good luck!
