Default Re: Twin 250's on a SF 23'?

I have mounted an F225 on 2 different boats and they are HEAVY HEAVY MOTORS . . . I suspect they are over their advertised weight (well into 600lb range). Makes a 3.0L merc 225 and 200hpdi feel like a 4hp. One F250 is plenty of power for the 23 . . . no sense in cruising over 30mph anyway with todays gas prices. Weather only allows 22 - 25mph most days around here.
