Below are the performance specs for the 228 Grady White with the F200 Yamaha
followed by those with the F225 Yamaha. The data seem to indicate the F200 is a
better performer. The recommended cruise RPM is 4000, but the F200 is *faster*
than the F225. There is about a 360lb difference in the accessory weight (from
something??), but would this account for the difference?

It's the hardtop.

Also, what's the simple difference between a Yamaha 200 HPDI and the current
engines. Is the HPDI a two or four stroke? I'm looking at an ad for a 2001 GW
228 w/Yamaha 200 HPDI engine for $31865.

The HPDI is a two stroke direct injected engine and for my money much
better technology.

TWO STROKE RULES!!! :)
