seacraft scupper question

[oldbluesplayer]

G -

I think you are basically onto it - I have the same boat, a 73 20' Seafari, with an '84 Johnson V-4, 115. The scuppers are a straight thru the floor tube, and if both me and my son stand in back by the transom, water will come up thru the scuppers and the floor gets a bit wet. Your 235, don't know what year, is a V-6 and is gonna be a good bit heavier, so even more the water.

Next question, is why the 235 - mine runs just over 30 (gps) WOT, and cruises nicely between 18 and 24 - from other posts I've seen here, a V-4 140 should get you upper 40's WOT - how much speed do you need - that 235 should be absolutely scary wide open !!!
