250 Suzuki four Stroke

[23yellow]

Well fellows, we picked up the 23 Seacraft with the new 250 four stroke Suzuki up on Friday and it was in the water by Saturday morning. Cannot get over the difference between our old 225 two stroke and this new bad boy. Here are the numbers with the 16X20 prop.

198423CC Seacraft 250 Suzuki 4Stroke
70 gallons of fuel
3 people

3700-23knots-7gph
4200-26knots-9gph
4500-29.9knots-11gph
5000-34.5knots-12.5gph
5700-38knots-have to look at flow scan
6100-40.2knots-have to look at flow scan

In conclusion, the new 250 four stroke is much faster and fuel efficient than the 225 two stroke. To give you an idea, top speed with the 225 two stroke was 34.7 knots compared to 40.2 knots with the 250 four stroke. Oh yeah, hole shot is ten times better. That sucker has soooo much torque to go along with the 16X20 prop. Only good things to say about this new motor.
