Re: 23 CC Power Opinions
Thats a lot of weight however the 23 is very capable of handling twins. I'm not following you on the bulk head thing. I dont remember a bulk head in front of the motors on my boat but it has been a while since I tore it apart. You seem to have the right idea on beefing up your transom. That is going to be your main concern with that much weight. You will want to make sure that it is as strong as possible. So if the boat needs a new transom then now is the time. I really like the seamark bracket. They make one for twin's. It's a little pricy but you get what you pay for. They also sell a transom enclosing kit. Potter designed these brackets and kit. Don Hermco is a member of this board and sells them. I've heard that Hondas are reliable. The 225 is supposed to be a dog on the 23. Not sure what you are paying for the Hondas but if you can get a simular price on either the suzuki 115 or the suzuki 140's then I'd go with a pair those. I think they are lighter then the Hondas.
