    I think Pat will get on here and tell you 10 hp=1mph. So....71? Nice ride, wish it was a better picture.

    A 250 on that hull will see 75 easy. I has one that looked very similar. It had a 225 opti and saw 74.5 light and 72-73 loaded.

    I can assure you that a 250 will get you 75 easy. Should be closer to 80. Mine ran right around 66-67 with the old 200.

    If he added a hydro tech to the 200 what kind of speed would he get then?

    My 202 runs 74.8 GPS with a 225 Yamaha, 27 tempest+. With a 250 maybe 80-81?

    Stage III, around 75 without the brain of a 250.

    I thought th 97 202 was only rated for a 225 max.

    I thought they were rated for any V6. But if the engine says 225 on the hood and serial plate doesn't necessarily mean the engine isn't pumping something else out >225/247.
