I have an 18 with a 3 cylinder 2 stroke 90 hp. When I first bought the boat I was planning to sell the motor and buy a bigger one. However, I have been completely blown away by how well the 90 pushes it. With two or three big guys it still pushes 32 mph and gets 3 mpg.
I keep wondering how a new Yamaha 70F might push an 18. Ill bet it would go 30 mph and get like 6 mpg.
Nice boat and welcome to the club!!!!
