[QUOTE="hwew, post: 357994, member: 1820"] I think for the size of the boat you have it would benefit greatly from a 25 hp outboard. The boat I have has a rating of 25 hp and with a 25 it the performance is amazing. A 15 will help some but the boat will not reach the level of performance it is capable of doing. Fuel consumption on the Yamaha 25 2-stroke is very good also. Once up on plane you are able to throttle back to less than half throttle and plane for a long time. I noticed that from owning both a 15 hp and 25 hp Yamaha 2-strokes that the fuel consumption is similar on the 25 hp Yamaha when throttling back and planing the same speeds that the 15 hp Yamaha did. I am glad I made the choice of going larger than a 15. The G3 1448PF and the 25 Yamaha 2-stroke is a great match and looking at your boat it think you will get similar performance. [/QUOTE]
