200 Mercury

[pogden]

Thanks for all the help and opinions. I hope I can get this motor. I figured that with the 200 I wouldn't have to run it real hard to get a little speed out of the boat. My tired old 150 evinrude is beat, but still kicking on 8 toes.
It's kinda funny my wife is the one who suggested I get a bigger motor(I think see was talking about the boat[img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img])

Chris I will call tonight Lynn's going out with her sister-in-law for a birthday party. We may be down Sat, I will show you our two new foster kids (Scott and Cam-Ron).

I had a 1973 20' with a 175hp. Given the right conditions at WOT the boat would chine walk and do every bit of 60mph
It would scare the heck out of me. I would not let anyone else run the boat at that speed. I think it was way too much power

Nah no such thing as too much power .

Yes, Capt you're right(just be careful) and Yes, Steve you are right (completely)

A man's got to know his limitations

or try to find them (Again, and again and again)
