Ok. All the talk about the nice 300 and 350 HP motors has me wondering (haven't even gotten the boat and have PADS). I ordered a 24 SSBXP SPS Performance Package with a 150 Yamaha. I know that boat will only handle a 200 max, but will I be happy :lol: with the 150? That is the smallest motor I have had on any of my boats. Mine you they have all been 21' Sea Ray bow riders. The current one has a 260 with a Bravo III outdrive and will hit 52 mph, but I hate seeing 26 gph on the display when I do that. $$$$$$.
I told the salesman that I didn't need to be the fastest boat on the lake, but didn't want to be the last one home when a storm hits (maybe if I am on the south end of the lake, CWAG will let me tie up). That 200 motor had a pretty good additional price tag, and remember the dog is expensive (see other posts). I did drive a 150 on a 24' on the test drive and saw 39 mph.
Tell me I will be happy :wub: .
