    2006 188 ? For Pat Goff

    I don’t post much or hardly ever, but I have followed this site for along time.
    Im looking at 06 188 to purchase . Pat my question is would a new Yamaha SHO 200 be to heavy for
    this boat? Or would I be better off looking for Yamaha hpdi 200?

    I wouldn’t fear the SHO motor. It’s not much more than a 3.3 HPDI. Plus it’s easy to tweak a bunch more out of.

    I don't like to give advice on something I've never rigged. Start with whatever you were running before and see what happens.
