115 eTec on 20CC

[eggsuckindog]

A 115 will be a little under powered but will push it, I had an inline 6 115 on my 18 and it did OK, the sf20 isn't much different. I do like my 200 Merc on my 20 MA though, real smooth with all the HP.

I have a 20 MA also. I am looking to put a new engine on it. What kind of speed are you getting from your 200 hp?

I have a 79 MA with an e-tec 175, wot is 50/51 mph and I personaly like the horse power. That being said I think that the E-Tec 115 would perform on the 20 footers. It gets down to what do you expect performance wise?

I also think the 115hp might be underpower for a 20' SeaCraft. I have the 1st generation eTech 115hp (1998) on my 18' flats skiff which of coarse is much lighter than the 20. I can get mid/high 40's @ WOT 5500 rpm slinging a 13 3/4 x 17 SS prop.
