I have an 1986 outrage 22. Can I repower with a 250? The boat CS sticker says max 240...I saw a Yamaha 250 SHO in a 25" version and it only weights 505 lbs. I currently have a 1996 Yamaha 225 saltwater series II. I know there is the F200XB option weighing <500 lbs also. I just want to make sure I have plenty of power. I am staying away from the Yamaha Offshore series because I would have to change everything because it is all fly-by-wire setup. Any input would be helpful. I am trying to stay with Yamaha to use the same equipment.
