If you prop correctly, a 90-100 hp four stroke is just fine and about 370 lb for a yamaha. If you over prop it, it is a dog. Yamaha made Mercury power heads for the 4 stroke 90hp models until the change to EFI or maybe later. I have a 2000 model year. If you treat the carbs right, it is fine. I got mine for $1200 with a boat. But double that is more realistic.

I am really looking at a light four cylinder yamaha, four stroke suzuki or etec in the 140-200 hp range and closest to 400 lbs as possible. I am looking at a small rebuild and putting on a large hermco flotation bracket. Got quoted no less than $6,000 installed for a new powerhead or a total rebuild. Really trying to become more fuel efficient though.
