Good numbers. i'm a little surprised a 225 would do that well.

The 25 is, for sure, a drivers boat, and, oh boy, does it reward a skillful driver. It took me a couple of trips to learn how to get the best out of it. Its easy to drive once you get the hang of it, but it still requires attention if its snotty.

I agree that's better than I would have expected, but most E-TEC's are strong running motors. That "225" is really about 240 hp at the prop, with lot's of mid-range torque and probably at least 500 lbs less weight than an I/O, which probably explains the excellent performance!
