I own a 95 22' Grady White. I use it 100% of the time in sal****er. My
concern was mid range efficiency, so I bought the Yamaha Sal****er Series
prop. The prop. is in the shop being tweaked. I already noticed a big
difference in all aspects (all +++). The old Sal****er Series 225 was not
even close to the performance of the new engine. In fairness my old engine
had allot of hours on it and was OLD and tired. So far I am very happy.
Cost was less than $15,000 for the engine. (still allot). Jim

Thanks for the info. Jim


Jim,

How do you like your Yamaha F225? I'm thinking of repowering and have
generally heard good things about them, (notwithstanding the above).
What size boat do you have it on and did you repower or buy a new boat
w/motor? I ask because the only knock against the F-225 seems to be low
end acceleration. Did you notice a big difference?
