Re: Beating a Dead Horse- Please Help
I think the 300 Suzi would be a fantastic motor on that boat and would top 3 MPG and 48-50mph. That being said I have twin Suzi 115's that are 2002's. Ask Snookered and Island Trader. They were on the boat at Desoto. It runs awesome. At 4000 rpm's I burn 10-10.5gph combined and move at 25.5kts. Wide open I hit 39kts at 6k. I run 24" stiletto props and they are a perfect match. I'd imagine the 140's would best my numbers by 2kts. They weight of the 175's are alot and could adversly affect performance. Unless you are a speed freak the 140's will suite all your needs.
