I've not heard too many good things about the 4 cylinder 200 hp Yamaha. The problem I hear is it seems to be a bit wimpy. I don't have one on my boat to properly answer your question, however using my boat as an example with 140 gals of gas, full load of ice, beer, drinks, etc., plus people that engine ain't gonna cut it. The 4.2 V-6 225 -250 hp is a different story. Good luck.

one of my friends did put a new 4 cyl 200 hp yami on an older 23, and said it is a great combo.. top speed at 35 mph, I do not know the cruising specs.I think it works.I did a repower on a 96 26 regulator with a pair of these ,and they were perfect,great midrange power and top end...awesome motor !

200 Yamaha
Well Terry I'm not a English teacher, I'm a fishing guide. Those numbers don't sound right. I have a 2015 Tidewater 24 Baymax with a 200 and at 4000 rpm I get 30 mph and 4 mpg. Not sure what your dealeres are telling you but I did not pay $500.00 for a 100 hour service.

For what it's worth. My buddy runs a merc verado 200 on his century 24.5 with ttop 50 gals fuel. Ant at wot hits 46 mph.. At 4500 runs36 and burns about 10 gph...this is with two old fat beer drinking fellas..I would say it is pretty doable...unless you want to run 50 mph.
..FYI we did run a 250 verado on this boat and it hit 56 mph.. Way to fast but it was nice to have to power when needed

Capttodd- take a look at the threat I started under photos, peanut island. I have a 77' 23 with a 200 Yamaha HPDI. Bushwacker made a great comment and there are a few pics.
Here was the info you asked for: Per the post: When I bought the boat I thought with only a 200 it would be a dog. Far from it. A good crusing speed is 3600-3700 rpms. Boat is running about 22 kts while burning no fuel. Even with the top, yetis, fishing gear and 4 people, boat still gets up and goes. I would guess about 40mph wide open, 5500rpms medium load. Ran from the Boca Inlet to Palm Beach Inlet and back with 4 people and all the wife's BS, burned about 20-25 gallons all day. Boat holds 100 gallons.
