Default Which outboard?

I don't see any need to step up to a 200 hp V6 on this boat. The days
you can comfortably run more than 25 mph in a 21' boat are rare on
Chesapeake Bay. The 150 is about $4000 less than the 200.

Any comment on the extrapolations?


I'd go with the 200.

After all, it is a four stroke. :)

Actually, and I don't mean this the way it's going to sound, I find
those gas milage figures suspect.

However assuming that they are good numbers, I'd agree with you on the
150.

Even if it is ancient technology.
