I have the 225 hp 4 stroke and love it on my 620. The 620 was not made for a good hole shot loaded with 5 or 6 muskie boxes.

Standard load she is great. Gas and quiet.

I'm anywhere from 55-58mph on my 620 and she's a pig.

Changing the oil is the only thing along with filter and lower unit. Both are very easy.

The new 620 looks like it will have a better hole shot based on hull design. Hopefully someday move up to the 250 four stroke. I'd never go back to a two stroke

I decided to go with a 175 Mercury Optimax my new rig was only rated for a 175 and not to many choices in a 175 . Thanks for the replys
