Subject: RE: 175 Repower Options


I have a 185 Alumacraft Tournament Sport, its 18'11" in length. Trust me, on this boat a 225 doesnt add much for top end I have driven one with a 225 on it back to back with 150 and 175. Yes, it was faster, but it just isnt worth it IMO.

I kept my last boat for 15 years, so I am sure I will be keeping this one that long as well.

I have no doubts that motor makes a bigger difference on some boats, but not all.

I drove a 20 foot Patriot with a 150 on it a couple years ago and that thing was insane fast. I dont recall what the boat was rated for, but probably a 250.
