Title: Aquasport 200 striper - 20 inch
Post by: bkuhles109 on August 01, 2018, 06:58:43 PM: I am having a issue on what size outboard I should go with on my striper 200!
I had a Yamaha 115 4 stroke, and I would stand in the back of the boat and the top transom would have like 6-8 inches till the water would go over (never went over) I was just wondering if I should just go two stroke 115, and just go with less weight or would it be fine for a Yamaha 150 2 stroke or look for a 115 4 stroke. And my model boat has the low transom style so I was just seeing if someone on here has the same boat and just want to see what y’all thought ?

Check the catalog (in the gallery) for the HP rating and see if you can find an engine above 115 in the least weight.
