Re: Power on an 18'
Bmaj,
Great decision on the Suzuki 140 4 stroke. I had a 225 johnson on my 23' CC and swapped it for 2 Yam 130 2 strokes(used) I liked them alot but recently repowered with dual 115hp Suzuki 4 strokes. THEY DON'T BURN FUEL! I get a much better hole shot then the 225, better fuel economy than I could imagine. Nearly 3mpg (for real) when cruising between 21 and 30 kts. and my top end is about 44mph. These motors are quiet and I've racked up almost 200 hours in only 9 months! No problems at all. Good luck. For all you other guy's thinking of repowerering. I would take twin 115 or 140 Suzuki 4 strokes over a single Honda or Yamaha 225hp 4 stroke FOR THE SAME PRICE OUT THE DOOR ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. IT'S A NO BRAINER.
