Can anyone tell me the pros and cons of this motor?
They are a strong running engine. A couple of my associates have this engine on Skeeter ZX190 hulls. I have seen one of these hulls run just shy of 70. The 175 HPDI is built on a long proven design.
I have an 03 model and I love it. It is quite good on gas and is very strong. Starts every time without problems. One thing I really like about it is that it doesn't smoke when starting or idling. I have it on a Skeeter TZX190 and my top speed (GPS) w/2 guys, full tanks, all gear is 65.3 and alone rigged the same top speed has been 68.6.
I have the 200HP and it is a VERRY reliable motor. Both times I have deployed just normal storage and started up first turn. Recommend it as long as Yamalube and Ring Free have exclusivley been used... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/beers.gif
150/175/200 are yamis best motors put out as long as there are MAINTAINED
