20SF 130 or 150hpdi ?

BoniB · #1 01-31-2010, 01:48 AM

I have to re-power a 74' 20SF; tossed between a 150hpdi and a 130 yamaha (both used). The extra weight of the 150 is what concerns me.. Is the extra 100 lbs. (approx) enogh to be concerned about?

Thanks,

Underway especially in the ocean the 6 would be a little nicer

If he still has the in floor drains, maybe you guys with this hull could chime in about whether it will make any difference in terms of water coming in at rest.

With an HPDI,You would have to move alot of stuff forward in order for it to self bail, even with no one in it.

Yes it is of concern.
Yammie is @ 360 dry, HPDI @ 100 more. Lots of folks like their 130`s. Good solid motors too.

The extra weight of the 150 will not allow the boat to self bail. You WILL stand in water with that setup.

I have a 150 Evinrude on my 20SF. I cross the drainage lines & it keeps much of the water out.

My 225 efi Merc weighs in at 475 lbs and my 20 sf still self bails.
