Ficht 200 vs Hpdi 200

[captbone]

I have the 2001 catolog in front of me, I know that is when OMC made them but I dont think it changed. It shows the 200,225,250 3.3 liter as having only a 35 amp charging system. The amp is 60 amp but is regulated to put out only 35amp, the rest is for the motor. I think that it the exact same now as it was in 2001 just better quality control and testing, I think the only different is Bombarier is using a more aggressive market idea and telling everyone about the 60 amp alt (which is true just not completely truthful). Unless Bombarier changed the alt from 2001 I think that it is only 35 amp. The truth is that at that level it really does not matter anyway. To strain a battery system with the motor running anyway is very hard, with twins it is twice as tough.
