[QUOTE="Foz240, post: 503302, member: 33823"] Hi all I have a 2009 mercury 20hp on a Lund WC14 DLX . I am debating upgrading to a brand new mercury 25hp. The 20 is a 333cc, the 25 is 500cc. I realize this is only a 5hp gain (25% increase) but it’s even more of an engine [B]size[/B] increase (50% increase). How does the engine size increase impact performance? Does this equate to much more torque than the 20? Note: I typically run the boat fully loaded, or occasionally pull one of my small kids on a tube. I have tried an adult in the tube and although the boat does get on plane, it definitely struggles to do so with an adult. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
