Water cooled EMM . BRP had to sell these with 7 year warranties becasue the OMC name was beat up som much.

I cruise @ 4100 ish going 30mph with a 15x15 Alum BRP prop. WOT is 5800 ish going 40-42mph.
I agree - these are very good motors if you can find one used in proper condition.
My 200hp was strong - made a huge difference vs my older 150 looper. Gained a full 10 mph top end, plus jumped the boat up on plane, and could also plane at lower rpm.
I'd like to put one on my V21' !!! 2002 - 2005 models, yup.
