how much power do I needed?

[amadaeus]

thankx for all your responses it helps alot. My transom was rebuilt and raised to 25" according to the previous owner, but I think i'm going to repower it with a 1996'-98' yamaha 150 efi if ppossible. This old 200 evinrude goes thru gas like water so I think I'll be better off with a 150 EFI or maybe if I can dish-out $7500 I'll go with a DF140 hp Suzuki!
