    Question Honest opinions

    Hey fellas,
    I’m looking at a boat with a 2017 Honda 150hp. Boat and motor are 2017 but brand new. Never ran a Honda before and was just hoping to get any info as far as performance, speed, reliability, etc.
    Thanks for the help!

    The type of boat would be helpful.
    I ran a Honda BF150 on a Xpress X19 and it ran 54-56. Ran it 6 years and now my cousin has it. No issues but a fouled spark plug. I have ran nothing but Honda’s since!!

    It is a 150 also, and the boat is a polar kraft 195.
    Thanks for your response!

    Thats probably a mid 50 boat with the Honda. I would look at a 24 pitch fury or tempest plus. Solid plugs.
