[QUOTE="PATRIOT2, post: 280085, member: 6098"] Currently running a 247cc, 84#, 15HP Nissan, carbureted, 2-stroke with a 1.85:1 gearcase, 8.5 pitch prop, at 5500 rpm's and 22 mph. Speed isn't my primary concern but I'd like to get into a lightweight, fuel injected, 4-stroke. Twin cylinders would be nice to keep the weight down but would go to 3 if I have to. I'm finding that some manufacturers/dealers won't ship any motors 25HP and above and I'd like to purchase online to get free shipping and no tax. Others may have tried the same thing but what about the performance difference you found compared with your old 2-stroke? Any regrets? I'd really like to get a 25HP which is my transom rating.
