Author	Topic:   SUPER SPORT 13: 20-HP
bikingart	posted 11-17-2006 07:59 AM ET (US)         Yamaha has replaced their 25-HP four-stroke outboard with a 20-HP model. Many here have expressed their satisfaction with the 25-HP on a 13-foot Boston Whaler boat, but, in looking at this 20-HP, I feel it might be marginal in power in spite of its lower weight. The 25-HP two-stroke is still available. Just mulling over re-power options for my 1988 SUPER SPORT 13 currently being beautified in my shop.
