There's no argument, the 175 should be plenty fast and is a perfect fit for the 20 SF. I currently have a 94 Evinrude 150 that runs great and tops out at about 45 WOT. But me personally, I'd like to see at least another five miles an hour top end, additionally I come from a family if big people and have some pretty darn big friends too. So the extra horses comes in handy when you're hauling around a lot of meat. Whether it's Justified or not, I guess at the end of the day the real answer is, just because I want it. :-)
