I have done a lot of surfing and can't find too much info on actual performance tests on these new 4.5L 200hp versions.
I am looking at NEW boats and have a decision to make. Yes this does come down to personal usage but what would be the best logical choice to make??
Both boats are the same 18' brand/model.. Pricing is close, the 2015 a couple bucks cheaper. New on the lot.
2015 factory tower and swim platform. 4.3 TKS 190hp
2016 NO tower or platform but the new 4.5L MPI-200 hp
Either engine should have no problems moving a 18ft, 2400# boat. I've always owned a carbed unit and never had any issues.
So does a guy pick the added options, tower/platform, or go with the newer tech engine setup??
