Don, I agree a pair of 200s would do it but it's a big 27 and if it were me I would go with a pair of 300s in any brand to attain a high cruise speed below the fuel curve peak. 300 ponies on my sled is well overboard on power but to be able to cruise fully loaded @ 30 knots getting 30% better fuel economy than my 250 @ 27 knots was worth the hp upgrade.

Again, I was seriously considering Todds boat and without a doubt it was going to get either twin 300s or a single 350 Yamaha if I would have pulled the trigger.
