200 YAMAHA on 23' SeaCraft

[DonV]

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.
