boat and transom should be able to handle it, just getting insurance might be a problem

keep the old cowling, and problem solved. the boats that the transom/stringer system will take a tiny bit more horsepower for sure. the weight is the same and the 25hp may get you another 3mph or so. there isn't a huge difference between the 2
Insurance will be an issue based on motor VIN, not the cowling. Boat can likely take it, but not the insurance. Also, if ever in an accident on the water, you'll be held much more accountable regardless of the circumstances.
Vin thing could bite you in certain tournaments and may hurt resale too.
Unless you hung the 225 of the same bracket with the original 200 vin number on it.

Yes, it can handle it just fine
I called my insurance compnay they sai no way! ( hahah) motor is in the shop now and i'm hoping for the best ! it was worth a try.
Insurance companies suck the big one! I own my own company, a home, a boat, a truck, two trailers aside from the boat trailer...a Vette, and a Jeep...let alone health insurance and life insurance...and let's not count out gap insurance on the truck (insurance to further insure insurance)....they suck me dry for over 30k a year when it's all added up...and you cannot purchase a policy of which covers your desire in any case...why??? all insurance is...is a risk that a company takes to collect your money and cover hopefully nothing if something goes wrong...it is the biggest rip off in America...second to Workers Compensation Insurance for micro businesses..."F U" insurance companies....
