Yeah, I had a 200 Opti for the first 10 years I had boat- started to have continuous issues so finally got fed up and repowered halfway thru this summer. Decided to downsize to a 175- definitely lost some speed which was not unexpected but currently finding that I cruise at 24-25 knots at 4500 rpm's and top out at about 31-32 knots at 5400 or 5500 rpm's. I also lost a ton of weight off the stern as the E-Tec is much lighter. Very good on gas and very quiet too so overall I am happy. I just used the auto-winterize system too which was cool and saved me at least $200 off the marina winterizing the engine. I think some people would consider the boat underpowered but it's fine for me.
