Power for 1974 222 Aquasport
« on: May 28, 2009, 08:16:43 AM »
Hey guys,

I am wondering if the Yamaha F150 will be enough power to push this boat with a half tower, full livewell, and all the fishing gear. Will I be happy?

Wondering what the performance will be like for this setup.

Thanks,

Cole

Although a F150 will do the job, i'd go for more power.

Let see pictures of the boat!

A 200 would be better all around, a 150 would work but it would not be that fast.

Thanks for the responses.

I found a Yamaha F150 and am trying to find an Aquasport to match it with..

Do not have the boat yet, but will post pics if deal goes through.

I just didn't know if the F150 would be enough for the 222... Does anybody have performance #'s with the F150?

Thanks again for the help.
